Description

Product Introduction

Lithium Hydroxide (LiOH, CAS No. 1310-65-2) is an important lithium-containing inorganic compound widely used in lithium-ion batteries, solid-state battery materials, electrochemical research, lithium compound synthesis, and advanced energy storage technologies. Lithium hydroxide is one of the key lithium precursors for producing high-performance cathode materials, especially high-nickel layered oxide cathodes for next-generation lithium batteries.

Due to its high lithium content, strong alkalinity, and excellent reactivity with transition metal oxides, Lithium Hydroxide is extensively used in the preparation of nickel-rich cathode materials such as NMC (LiNiₓMnᵧCoₓO₂) and NCA (LiNiCoAlO₂). It is also an important raw material for lithium salts, lubricants, ceramics, and specialty chemical synthesis.
