Hardener for the polymerization of special plastics. Regeneration of the air, in space technology. It absorbs CO2 and releases subsequently O2. Raw material for the production of high purity lithium oxide (Li2O).
Lithium carbonate is a key chemical in the production chain, serving as a versatile product; the basis for other lithium derivatives like lithium hydroxide. Integral to battery materials technologies.
The use of a 'ready-made' dibutyl ether solution avoids the handling of the very hygroscopic and dusty ZnBr₂ and LiBr powder.
The ZnBr₂/LiBr dibutyl ether solution was developed mainly for the application in organic synthesis, e.g.:
Manufacture of pharmaceuticals. Swelling agent for proteins. Auxiliary product for the alkylation of weak amines. Lithium bromide is also available as a 52 - 55 % aqueous solution (Product No. 401200)

Raw material for the glass, ceramics and enamel industries; basis material for the manufacture of other lithium compounds; catalyst for esterification; additive and flux for welding rods; additive in aluminum electrolysis melts; additive for quick-setting cement; and others.
