General description

Lithium metaborate (LMB) isa good ion conductor and wide bandgap insulator commonly used as a flux orsolvent to identify and characterize uranium and thorium-containing resistantminerals. LMB is also used as a chemical modifier during thegeneration of new compounds from clays and refractory materials. Because of itshigh optical damage thresholds, mechanical durability, and deep-ultraviolettransparency, it is a suitable material for non-linear optics.

Application

Lithium metaborate fusion can be used for the preparation of geological materials. The fusion of rock samples with LMB results in the formation of glasses that are easily soluble in dilute acids. This method allows the preparation of whole-rock solutions for rapid analysis.

LMB melt can be used in the synthesis of low-density γ-Al2O3 from high-density α-Al2O3 under high pressure.

LMB can be employed as a protective coating layer for lithium-ion battery cathode materials due to its chemical inertness in organic electrolytes.

Questions

1–2 of 2 Questions  

  1. How is shipping temperature determined? And how is it related to the product storage temperature?

    1 answer

    1. Products may be shipped at a different temperature than the recommended long-term storage temperature. If the product quality is sensitive to short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped on wet or dry-ice. If the product quality is NOT affected by short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped at ambient temperature. As shipping routes are configured for minimum transit times, shipping at ambient temperature helps control shipping costs for our customers. For more information, please refer to the Storage and Transport Conditions document: https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/deepweb/assets/sigmaaldrich/marketing/global/documents/316/622/storage-transport-conditions-mk.pdf

  2. How can I determine the shelf life / expiration / retest date of this product?

    1 answer

    1. If this product has an expiration or retest date, it will be shown on the Certificate of Analysis (COA, CofA). If there is no retest or expiration date listed on the product's COA, we do not have suitable stability data to determine a shelf life. For these products, the only date on the COA will be the release date; a retest, expiration, or use-by-date will not be displayed.
      For all products, we recommend handling per defined conditions as printed in our product literature and website product descriptions. We recommend that products should be routinely inspected by customers to ensure they perform as expected.
      For products without retest or expiration dates, our standard warranty of 1 year from the date of shipment is applicable.
      For more information, please refer to the Product Dating Information document: https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/deepweb/assets/sigmaaldrich/marketing/global/documents/449/386/product-dating-information-mk.pdf
