NOTES |
Uses: Lithium Carbonate is used in the production of high purity lithium chemicals which in turn can be used in pharmaceuticals. It is an additive in quick-setting cements, welding rods, and aluminum electrolysis melts. As a raw material, it is used in the production of glass, ceramics, enamel, and cathodes in Lithium ion batteries. It can also be used as a catalyst for esterification.
Available Grades: Available In Technical grade in form of powder, granules, fines, and milled; battery grade in form of fines and milled; and pharmaceutical and high purity grade. Use: BUFFERING, HAIR WAVING OR STRAIGHTENING |
