General description

Lithium hydroxide monohydrate, 99.995% trace metals basis is a white colored salts. We offer highly pure and controlled specifications to fulfill research needs such as enhancing battery technology and improving lubricants to ensuring air quality in closed environments, and contributing to advanced materials in glass, ceramics, and polymers.
We are committed to bringing you Greener Alternative Products, which belong to one of the four categories of greener alternatives. Lithium hydroxide monohydrate supports cleaner technologies as a key precursor for high-performance lithium-ion batteries. Click here for more information.

Application

Lithium hydroxide monohydrate (LiOH⋅H2O) is a crucial precursor for the production of lithium-ion battery cathode material such as lithium cobalt oxide (LiCoO2) and lithium nickel manganese cobalt oxide (NMC). Lithium hydroxide monohydrate is used in CO2 scrubbers to absorb carbon dioxide from the air. This application is crucial in closed environments such as submarines, spacecraft, and underwater habitats. Lithium hydroxide monohydrate can be used as a catalyst. In a recent study, it has been found that Lithium hydroxide monohydrate works as a novel catalyst for Knoevenagel condensation of aryl aldehydes with malononitrle and ethylcyanoacetate. Also it is used as highly efficient catalyst for Gewald reaction, for an easy and highly efficient synthesis of arylidene malononitrile,arylidene ethylcyanoacetate and 2-aminthiophenes.

Features and Benefits

The following benefits are the main feature of the product:
  1. requirement of a small amount while using as a catalyst,
  2. short reaction times, and
  3. high product yields etc
  4. Low trace metals content ( < 55.0 ppm)

Questions

1–2 of 2 Questions  

  1. 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/418/501/product-dating-information-06-25-mk.pdf

  2. 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
