LIFETECH® Ultrafines Admixture
LifeTech® Ultrafines are 99% lithium carbonate products (Li2Co3) similar to Superfines, but they provide the finest particle size and the highest reactivity of the lithium carbonate grades. They are excellent for use in building materials and industrial applications.
LifeTech® grades are lithium carbonate–based accelerating admixtures that do not contain sodium or potassium alkalis.
LifeTech® Ultrafines are the finest of all lithium carbonate grades from Livent. They offer excellent control, uniformity, and a predictable reaction rate in a variety of industrial applications.
LifeTech® lithium carbonates provide fine particle size and narrow size distribution for applications where reactivity and performance are based on the surface area of lithium carbonate particles.
Specifications
Bulk density 0.7 g/cm3: (44 lb/ft3) Molecular weight: 73.89 Melting point: 7200°C Specific heat @ 250°C: 0.315 cal/g/°C Standard heat of formation: 290.64 kcal/mole Standard heat of fusion: 10.7 kcal/mole Water solubility @ 200°C: 1.3 wt% Particle size distribution (Malvern): 3.6–6.8 µm Particle size D90: 25 µm max
Primary Chemistry: Lithium Carbonate, Li2CO3
Features & Benefits
Ultrafine particle size Narrow particle size distribution Reduces concrete setting time Increases early compressive strength Prevents nonuniform curing Prevents discoloration and spotting Controls ASR in concrete Concrete-setting accelerant
Problems Solved
Setting or compressive strength issues in concrete applications Concrete needs too much time to set, level, or dry High melting point or mixing difficulties in glass or ceramic applications Lithium carbonate’s particle size distribution is too wide
Applications
Refractory cement and concrete Shotcrete, gunite, and rapid-repair materials Self-leveling floor systems Quickset adhesives and mortars Ceramics and refractory materials Specialty glasses Welding rods
Lithium salts are known for offering improved performance, quality, and endurance to building and construction materials such as concrete, glass, and ceramics. The chemistries also provide unique characteristics and physical properties, which makes it ideal for use in a broad spectrum of industrial applications, from space suits to submarines, from lithium greases to air filtration systems.
