FAQs of Lithium Bromide Solution:
Q: How should Lithium Bromide Solution be stored for optimal shelf life?
A: Lithium Bromide Solution should be stored in tightly sealed containers, such as HDPE drums or IBC tanks, kept away from moisture and incompatible materials like strong acids and bases. When stored as recommended, the shelf life is up to 24 months.
Q: What are the primary applications of Lithium Bromide Solution?
A: This solution is primarily used in absorption chillers for air conditioning systems, industrial dehumidification, and in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and chemicals. Its hygroscopic nature makes it especially effective for moisture control and heat absorption processes.
Q: When is special handling or safety precaution necessary with this solution?
A: Caution is essential as the solution is toxic if ingested and can react with strong acids, bases, and moisture. Use appropriate PPE such as gloves and eye protection during handling, and avoid direct contact or inhalation.
Q: Where is Lithium Bromide Solution typically supplied from and to?
A: Lithium Bromide Solution is distributed, exported, imported, and supplied by manufacturers, wholesalers, retailers, and traders, particularly in India, and can be provided regionally and internationally upon request.
Q: What is the process for using Lithium Bromide Solution in air conditioning or dehumidification systems?
A: The solution is circulated within absorption chillers or dehumidification systems, leveraging its hygroscopic and conductive properties to absorb water vapor from the air or to facilitate heat exchange, resulting in efficient cooling or drying.
Q: What are the benefits of using Lithium Bromide Solution in industrial settings?
A: Its high purity, stability, and strong moisture absorption ability enhance efficiency in cooling, dehumidification, and chemical synthesis. The solutions compatibility with automated systems and reliable supply further support its industrial value.
