Lithium

Lithium (CAS 7439-93-2 ) is a soft alkali metal supplied in metallic form for industrial and specialty chemical applications. It functions as a reactive starting material and catalyst across battery manufacturing and pharmaceutical synthesis. In battery and energy storage manufacturing, metallic lithium is the primary anode material in lithium-metal cells. It also serves as a precursor for lithium-ion battery electrolytes and cathode compounds. Pharmaceutical manufacturers use it as a reagent in organolithium synthesis routes. Its high reactivity drives the production of active pharmaceutical ingredients and intermediates for various medical treatments. Aerospace and defense applications include lithium-aluminum alloys, where its addition reduces structural weight. This allows for improved fuel efficiency without compromising the tensile performance of the metal. In electronics, it supports the production of specialty ceramics and glass formulations. It is also used in flux materials required for high-precision printed circuit board fabrication and assembly. Metallic lithium is supplied as ingots, rods, foil, wire, and granules. Packaging is typically under inert atmosphere or mineral oil to prevent oxidation during transit and long-term storage. Standard grades include battery-grade, reagent-grade, and technical-grade. Purity levels commonly range from 99% to 99.9%+, ensuring compatibility with sensitive industrial and laboratory processes. Procurement quantities range from small laboratory lots to bulk industrial supply. This flexibility allows us to meet the specific application requirements of diverse global manufacturing sectors.
