Product name:Lithium hydride
CAS: 16026-77-0
Molecular Formula: LiH
Molecular Weight: 7.95
Product description:Under normal temperature are stable in dry air, and high temperature are broken down into hydrogen and lithium. The block was powder is stable. Can contact with the moist air ignition powder, dissolved in water to generate lithium hydroxide and hydrogen. At high temperature and oxygen reaction to generate the corresponding oxide, chloride, chlorine gas. React with nitrogen gas to generate amide, imine or nitride. React with aluminium chloride to produce lithium aluminium hydride in the ether. Is a typical kind of salt hydride. Cathode of lithium, when molten electrolysis anode release hydrogen.1, used as a desiccant, hydrogen agent, reducing agent in organic synthesis, etc. 2, the military used as hydrogen source. Used as a reducing agent in organic synthesis.
