General description

Lithium deuteride (LiD) is a stable isotopic compound that is commonly used in deuterium storage and energy storage applications because of its high melting point, low density, high deuterium concentration, and exceptional thermal stability in both vacuum and inert gases. It can also be used as a potential raw material for the synthesis of organic deuterides, deuterated solvents, and deuterated polymers.
