Lithium Hexafluorophosphate Cas No 21324-40-3

Product Description:

Lithium hexafluorophosphate is a colorless crystalline or white granular solid with the molecular formula LiPF6. It has a high solubility in water, but it absorbs moisture and slowly decomposes in air. Lithium hexafluorophosphate is an important material for manufacturing lithium-ion battery electrolytes and is also used to prepare certain special phosphorus compounds.

Product characteristics:

1. Chemical formula: LiPF6

2. Molecular weight: 151.90

3. Appearance: Colorless crystalline or white granular solid

4. Solubility: Highly soluble in water, but easily hygroscopic in air

5. Melting point: 200 ℃ (decomposition)

6. Density: 1.50 g/cm ³ (25 ℃)

Safety information:

Lithium hexafluorophosphate can release toxic gases when in contact with water or moisture, so it must be stored and used in a dry environment. In addition, it is also a strong acid that can corrode the skin and eyes, so appropriate protective equipment must be worn during operation.

Application:

1. Lithium ion battery electrolyte: Lithium hexafluorophosphate is one of the main components in the production of lithium-ion battery electrolytes, which can provide sufficient ion conductivity and ensure good charging and discharging performance of the battery.

2. Preparation of special phosphorus compounds: Lithium hexafluorophosphate is also used to prepare certain special phosphorus compounds, such as lithium phosphate.

Storage and Packaging:

The product should be stored in a dry, cool, and well ventilated place, away from ignition and heat sources. The product should be stored in a sealed manner to prevent moisture from entering. The packaging of the product should be moisture-resistant to prevent degradation of product performance.
