APPLICATION AREAS
Lithium carbonate is a lithium salt with the chemical formula Li2CO3. Battery-grade lithium carbonate is primarily used to produce Li-ion battery cathode materials, such as lithium cobalt oxide (LCO), lithium manganate oxide (LMO), lithium iron phosphate (LFP), NMC111, NMC442, NMC532, NMC622, as well as alkaline batteries. Battery-grade lithium carbonate is also a key material in LIB electrolytes.
Lithium carbonate is widely utilized in Li-ion batteries, pharmaceuticals, aluminum production, and metal oxide processing. In the glass industry, it lowers the melting point of silica for ovenware glass. In ceramics, lithium carbonate contributes to color and shine.
