Description

Lithiumbromide CAS NO 7750-35-8 is an inorganic salt of lithium and bromine, valued for its exceptional hygroscopic properties and high solubility in water and various organic solvents. This makes it a critical component in industrial drying processes and specialized chemical synthesis. It is primarily sought by manufacturers in the chemical processing, pharmaceutical, and air conditioning industries for applications requiring precise moisture control or as a source of bromide ions.

Application

• Industrial Dehumidification & Drying: Used as a highly efficient desiccant in air conditioning systems, particularly in absorption chillers, and for drying air streams in chemical processing.
• Pharmaceutical Synthesis: Serves as a reagent or catalyst in organic synthesis for the preparation of various active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and intermediates.
• Chemical Manufacturing: Acts as a source of bromide ions in the synthesis of other bromine-containing compounds and as a component in certain electrolyte formulations.
• Laboratory & Research: Employed in analytical chemistry and academic research as a standard or reagent due to its defined chemical properties.
• Specialty Glass & Ceramics: Used in the production of certain types of optical glass and ceramics where its properties can modify melting points and material characteristics.

Quality Control

Our Lithiumbromide is produced and tested under a rigorous quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analysis to ensure it meets precise purity and compositional specifications. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing assay, impurity profiles, and physical parameters is provided with every shipment to guarantee traceability and compliance with your technical requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Due to its hygroscopic nature, store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area. The container must be kept tightly sealed to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture, which can lead to caking and degradation of product quality. Recommended long-term storage temperature is 15-25°C.
