About Lithium Carbonate. Lithium Carbonate (a.k.a. Li2CO3) is an inorganic salt, a white crystalline powder, slightly soluble in water, but insoluble in most organic solvents. It is an important industrial chemical, used in a wide variety of processes. Since 1949, the clinical value of the salt has been recognized, and lithium carbonate is used in the treatment of some medical disorders.
Commercial Grades. United States Pharmacopeia (USP)/pharmaceutical grade (99% minimum purity) and technical grade (98% minimum purity).
Uses. Lithium Carbonate is used mainly as antidepressant drug; glass and porcelain additive; and cement accelerator. It is also employed in bipolar disorder treatment; batteries production; ceramics; aluminum production; electrode coating; and luminescent paints, varnishes, and dyes.
