Product Application of Lithium carbonate CAS#554-13-2
Industrial lithium carbonate has distinct applications in industry and medicine. Industrially, it serves as a raw material for manufacturing diverse lithium salts such as lithium chloride and lithium bromide. It also functions as a lithium oxide component in the production of enamel, glass, and ceramic enamel. In aluminum electrolysis processes, it is incorporated into electrolytic cells to optimize performance: specifically, it enhances current efficiency, reduces the internal resistance of the electrolytic cell, and decreases the temperature of the electrolytic bath. Medically, its primary use is in treating mania, and it also aids in improving emotional disturbances associated with schizophrenia.
