General description

Lithium hydroxide monohydrate is a lithium salt. Crystal structure study reveals it has monoclinic structure with space group C2/m. Its vibrational spectra has been studied using IR, Raman and inelastic neutron scattering (INS) spectroscopy. It is reported to transform the surface of titania monoliths to form flower like structures.

Application

Lithium hydroxide monohydrate may be used to produce naphtoxy ion during the synthesis of allyl 1-naphthyl ethers.
It may be used in the synthesis of the following:
  • Lithium titanate (Li4Ti5O12) heterogeneous nanostructures.
  • Tin oxide-carbon (SnO2/C) nanocomposites.
  • Zinc oxide (ZnO) nanowire arrays.
  • Lithium diborate gel films.
  • Porous layered lithium cobalt oxide (LiCoO2) films.
