Li2C03 Industrial Grade Lithium Carbonate
Industrial grade lithium carbonate is a colorless and transparent crystal with the chemical formula Li2CO3 and a molecular weight of 73.89. It can exist stably in air with a density of 2.11 g/cm3 and has good thermal and chemical stability. Industrial grade lithium carbonate is an important lithium compound mainly used in the production of lithium batteries, glass, ceramics, metallurgy and other fields.
Industrial grade lithium carbonate is a key raw material in the midstream of the lithium industry chain. Upstream raw materials include spodumene, lithium mica, etc. Downstream, it is widely used in traditional industries and some new energy fields.
The global industrial grade lithium carbonate production accounts for about 47%, with China being the main producer and consumer country.
