Lithium Perchlorate Production Cost Reports

Lithium Perchlorate production cost report provides a comprehensive analysis and know-how for setting up a Lithium Perchlorate production plant. The study covers all the requisite aspects that one needs to know for the production of Lithium Perchlorate. This includes manufacturing processes, raw material requirements, utility requirements, infrastructure requirements, machinery and technology requirements, manpower requirements, packaging requirements, transportation requirements, etc.

Lithium Perchlorate is a white crystalline salt  composed of one lithium, one chlorine, and four oxygen atoms. Its chemical formula is given by LiClO4. It is a crystalline chemical with a molecular weight of 106.4 g/mol. It is a chemical oxidizer that is hygroscopic in nature. The compound is synthesized by the chemical reaction between lithium chloride and sodium perchlorate. It can also be synthesized by the electrolysis of lithium chlorate at temperatures above 20 °C and at a pressure of 200 mA/cm².

It is a colorless, deliquescent crystal that is soluble in water. It is a white lithium salt that has high solubility in various organic solvents, including ethyl ether, alcohols, and ethyl acetate.

It is a toxic oxidizer that can react when combined with organic material, leading to an exothermic reaction. It can cause irritation over the skin and mucous membranes on exposure.

It can decompose when heated at around 400 °C, resulting in the formation of lithium chloride and oxygen. It has several applications that can be associated with aerospace, chemical, electronic, and other industrial operations. It has both the highest weight-to-oxygen and oxygen-to-volume ratio when compared to other perchlorates. It serves as a source of oxygen in some chemical oxygen generators.

Hence, it is incorporated into the operations carried out in the aerospace industry. It is also used as a chaotropic agent, which helps in denaturing proteins in the biochemical industry. Moreover, it serves as an alternative to other lithium compounds, including lithium hexafluorophosphate in manufacturing lithium-ion batteries. Lithium Perchlorate has high electrical impedance, electrical conductivity, anodic stability, and hygroscopicity. Along with its high oxidizing ability, the compound behaves as an excellent electrolyte salt for lithium-ion batteries.
