Mixed with oxidizing agents a constituent in compositions for flares, fuzes and combustion charges in pyrotechnics; as a binding or brazing component for grinding agents, carbides, ceramics and metal in abrasive wheels and polishing disks.

Manufacture of lubricating greases. Electrolyte component in alcaline storage batteries. Starting material for other lithium compounds. Chemical agent, for example for esterifications.

Cesium carbonate is a versatile base in organic synthesis. The milled grade is e.g. used in heterogeneous reactions benefiting from a large surface area.

Metalating agent for amines, alcohols and carboxylic acids. Reagent for synthesis of Ziegler-Natta catalyst system. Modifier for anionic polymerization initiation.

Raw material for the glass, ceramics and enamel industries; basis material for the manufacture of other lithium compounds; catalyst for esterification; additive and flux for welding rods; additive in aluminum electrolysis melts; additive for quick-setting cement.

Selective deprotonation of arenes and heteroarenes.

Spodumene is used in glasses, glass-ceramics, porcelain enamels, whitewares, and glazes due to the powerful fluxing properties of lithia. It possesses a very low thermal expansion and reduces the viscosity of the glass mass. It contributes to brilliancy and strength of the glass.

Used in numerous igniter and burning compositions for pyrotechnics.

STABROM 909 Biocide is a single-feed, stabilized bromine-based biocide for industrial water treatment applications. Product halogen activity is approximately 15% as Br2 , equivalent to approximately 7% as Cl2 .

Cesium chloride finds use in density gradient centrifugation and in crystal growth applications.
