Lithium chloride CAS：7447-41-8

Application:

Lithium chloride has a wide range of uses, and the production of metallic lithium by electrolysis is the field with the largest consumption of lithium chloride. The only industrial method for producing metallic lithium currently is the lithium chloride molten salt electrolysis method proposed by Guntz in 1893. Lithium metal and its alloys and compounds have extensive applications in many fields such as atomic energy industry, metallurgical industry, batteries, glass, ceramics, chemical industry, aerospace industry, etc. In recent years, lithium chloride has been widely used in fields such as biology and medicine. In medicine, it is used to treat diabetes, genetic research, chemical book and other aspects; Used in biology for the extraction and purification of RNA and a small amount of plasmid DNA; As a mutagen, it is widely used in industries such as food (beer), medicine, and environmental protection to select high-quality bacterial strains, cultivate high-yield strains, synthesize pharmaceutical intermediates, and genetically modify bacterial strains; In organic structure analysis, LiCl is an important cationic additive; Widely used in the production of chitin in the field of new materials; As an adsorbent and dehumidifier in air conditioners and dehumidifiers.
