Uses and synthesis of Lithium hydride powder

Lithium hydride powder is an inorganic compound. It is a white crystal that is highly reactive. One of the main uses of lithium hydride is as a hydrogen source. It can react with water to produce hydrogen and is used as a source of hydrogen in some fuel cells. Lithium hydride can also be used as a raw material for the preparation of lithium metal for the manufacture of lithium-ion batteries and lithium alloys. Lithium hydride is used in organic synthesis as a shrinking agent, reducing agent, alkylating agent, desiccant, and as a good hydrogen storage material

Physicochemical Property of Lithium hydride powder

Glassy colorless transparent solid. The goods are usually grey powder. The relative density is 0.78. Melting point 688℃. Boiling point > 700℃(decomposition). It quickly turns gray when exposed to light. At normal temperature, it does not decompose in dry air and reacts with water to form lithium hydroxide and hydrogen.

Production methodprocess of Lithium hydride powder

A common way to prepare lithium hydride is through the reaction of lithium and hydrogen. At high temperatures, Lithium can react directly with hydrogen to form Lithium hydride powder.
