LM2826 Lithium Hydroxide (CAS: 1310-65-2)

Lithium Hydroxide Description:

Lithium Hydroxide (CAS: 1310-65-2) is a highly water-insoluble crystalline Lithium source for uses compatible with higher (basic) pH environments. Hydroxide, the OH- anion composed of an oxygen atom bonded to a hydrogen atom, is commonly present in nature and is one of the most widely studied molecules in physical chemistry.

Lithium Hydroxide Applications:

Lithium Hydroxide (CAS: 1310-65-2) is mainly consumed in the production of lithium greases. A popular lithium grease thickener is Lithium 12-hydroxy stearate, which produces a general-purpose lubricating grease due to its high resistance to water and usefulness at a range of temperatures.

Lithium hydroxide has been used in the following processes:

• Synthesis of lithium-doped zinc oxide (ZnO) thin films.

• Preparation of lithium glyceroxide/hydroxide catalysts by reacting with glycerol.

• As a catalyst to generate unsaturated ketones via Michael addition of β-dicarbonyl compounds.
