Technical Parameters

❓ FAQ section

Q1: What are the core differences between battery-grade and optical-grade lithium fluoride?

→ Impurity control: optical-grade Fe≤1ppm (battery-grade ≤10ppm), Na≤0.0005% (battery-grade ≤0.005%)

Q2: How to avoid the risk of hydrofluoric acid corrosion during operation?

→ Strict moisture-proof: operate in an environment with humidity <40%, and neutralize with lime water in case of leakage (glass containers are prohibited)
