We are pleased to inform you that we offer two types of lithium hydroxide products: Monohydrate Lithium Hydroxide (LiOH·H2O) and Anhydrous Lithium Hydroxide (LiOH). Below are the detailed differences between these two products to help you make the right choice for your needs:
1. Chemical Composition
- Monohydrate Lithium Hydroxide (LiOH·H2O): Contains one molecule of crystallization water. Chemical formula: LiOH·H2O. Molecular weight: 42.
- Anhydrous Lithium Hydroxide (LiOH): Free of crystallization water. Chemical formula: LiOH. Molecular weight: 24.
2. Physical Properties
- Monohydrate Lithium Hydroxide:
- Appearance: White crystalline powder.
- Solubility: Highly soluble in water.
- Stability: Relatively stable in air but should be kept dry.
- Anhydrous Lithium Hydroxide:
- Appearance: White fine granules or powder.
- Solubility: Highly soluble in water, slightly soluble in alcohol.
- Stability: Strong hygroscopicity. Should be stored in a sealed container to prevent moisture absorption and carbonation.
3. Chemical Properties
- Monohydrate Lithium Hydroxide: Loses crystallization water when heated to 130-140°C, converting to anhydrous lithium hydroxide.
- Anhydrous Lithium Hydroxide: Decomposes into lithium oxide and water at high temperatures (around 600°C).
4. Applications
- Monohydrate Lithium Hydroxide:
- Mainly used for the preparation of lithium-ion battery cathode materials (e.g., NCM, NCA, and other ternary materials).
- Also used as laboratory reagents, for lithium salt production, and as additives in lubricating greases.
- Anhydrous Lithium Hydroxide:
- More suitable for the preparation of high-nickel ternary cathode materials.
- Also used as a CO2 absorbent (e.g., in aerospace and submarines), analytical reagents, and photographic developers.
5. Cost and Processing
- Monohydrate Lithium Hydroxide: Lower production cost. However, additional dehydration may be required during use, which can increase energy consumption and process complexity.
- Anhydrous Lithium Hydroxide: Higher production cost. However, it has higher purity and is more convenient to use, making it suitable for applications with high purity requirements.
6. Storage and Safety
- Monohydrate Lithium Hydroxide: Should be stored in a dry and cool environment to avoid moisture.
- Anhydrous Lithium Hydroxide: Strongly hygroscopic. Should be stored in a sealed container to prevent moisture absorption and carbonation.
Summary
- If your application requires higher purity and stability, we recommend Anhydrous Lithium Hydroxide.
- If your application has relatively lower purity requirements and you prioritize cost control, Monohydrate Lithium Hydroxide is a good option.
We are capable of providing both types of products to meet your diverse needs. If you need more detailed information about our products or have any other questions, please feel free to contact us.
