Lithium Chloride, technical grade, granules
LiCl
Lithium Chloride, technical grade (CAS 7447-41-8) is an inorganic lithium salt with molecular formula LiCl. It is supplied as granules.
It is used in absorption and dehumidification systems where hygroscopic salts are required. Fluxes for welding and soldering techniques; salt bath for heat-treatment by low temperature and for dip brazing; raw material for other lithium compounds; tracer for chemical products (denaturation of wine etc.); absorption and desinfection reagent (lithium chloride solution) for absorbers.
Store in a tightly sealed container to prevent contamination (and moisture pickup where applicable). Use standard industrial hygiene practices and consult the SDS for handling, incompatibilities, and spill response.
Applications
Fluxes for welding and soldering techniques salt bath for heat-treatment by low temperature and for dip brazing raw material for other lithium compounds tracer for chemical products (denaturation of wine etc.) absorption and desinfection reagent (lithium chloride solution) for absorbers.
