Products Usage
Because of its specific heat capacity, the highest of all solids, Lithium (CAS NO.7439-93-2) is often used in coolants for heat transfer applications.
In the later years of the 20th century Lithium became important as an anode material. Used in Lithium-ion batteries because of its high electrochemical potential, a typical cell can generate approximately 3 volts, compared with 2.1 volts for lead/acid or 1.5 volts for zinc-carbon cells. Because of its low atomic mass, it also has a high charge- and power-to-weight ratio.
Lithium is also used in the pharmaceutical and fine-chemical industry in the manufacture of organolithium reagents, which are used both as strong bases and as reagents for the formation of carbon-carbon bonds. Organolithiums are also used in polymer synthesis as catalysts/initiators in anionic polymerization of unfunctionalised olefins. Lithium-6 is valued as a source material for tritium production and as a neutron absorber in nuclear fusion. Natural lithium contains about 7.5 percent lithium-6. Large amounts of lithium-6 have been produced by isotope separation for use in nuclear weapons. Lithium-7 gained interest for use in nuclear reactor coolants.
Lithium salts were used during the 19th century to treat gout. Lithium salts such as lithium carbonate (Li2CO3), lithium citrate, and lithium orotate are mood stabilizers. They are used in the treatment of bipolar disorder since, unlike most other mood altering drugs, they counteract both mania and depression. Lithium continues to be the gold standard for the treatment of bipolar disorder. It is also helpful for related diagnoses, such as schizoaffective disorder and cyclic major depression.
Package And Storage
Package: packed in water-proof plastic woven bag, 1000kg per bag or as your requirements.
Remark: Chemical composition and size can be optimized by the customers' requirements
Storage:
Lithium particles are flammable and explosive materials, so special care is required when storing and the following recommendations should be followed:
Storage environment: You should choose a cool, dry, well-ventilated place, away from fire and heat sources, and avoid exposure to direct sunlight.
Packaging: Use special sealed containers for packaging, and ensure the containers are well sealed to prevent contact with air and oxidation of water vapor.
Isolation: Store in isolation from water, air, acid and other substances to avoid chemical reactions.
Labeling: Mark obvious safety signs in storage areas to remind people of the dangers of lithium particles.
Fire-fighting facilities: Storage areas should be equipped with adequate fire-fighting equipment and fire safety regulations should be strictly followed.
It is important to follow prescribed standards and safe operating procedures to ensure safe storage and use of lithium pellets.
