LIFETECH® Ultrafines is a 99% lithium carbonate product (Li2Co3) same as Superfines, but it provides the finest particle size and the highest reactivity of the lithium carbonate grades. It is excellent for use in building materials and industrial applications.
LIFETECH® grades are lithium carbonate-based accelerating admixtures that contain no sodium or potassium alkalis.
LIFETECH® Ultrafines is the finest of all available lithium carbonate grades from Livent. It offers excellent control, uniformity, and a predictable rate of reaction in a variety of industrial applications.
LIFETECH® lithium carbonates provide the fine particle size and narrow size distribution for applications where reactivity and performance are based on the surface area of the lithium carbonate particles.
