Lithium carbonate

Electric car charging, representing the use of lithium carbonate in electromobility

What is Lithium Carbonate and what is it used for?

El lithium carbonate What we produce is an odorless white salt composed of lithium, carbon and oxygen, with the chemical formula Li₂CO₃. Its high purity (≥99%) makes it a key input in various industries for their stability, lightness and high electrochemical potential.

Due to its versatility, it is widely used in sectors such as:

Electromobility: production of cathodes for lithium-ion batteries.

Consumer electronics: phones, notebooks, cameras.

Glass and ceramics: It improves thermal and mechanical resistance.

Metallurgy: fluxes and special alloys.

Other apps: pharmaceutical industry and other industrial uses.

The growth of the market Power Plants has strongly boosted global demand for this compound.
