General description

Lithium chloride is a white crystalline highlywater-soluble compound with good ionic conductivity. It has a relatively lowmelting point, which helps in the fabrication of battery components and solid-stateelectrolytes or the use of molten lithium chloride as an electrolyte.We are committed to bringing you Greener Alternative Products, which adhere to one or more of The 12 Principles of Greener Chemistry. This product has been enhanced for energy efficiency. Click here for more information.

Application

Lithium chloride can be used:

As a precursor to fabricate protective coating on Li metal electrodes. Coated metal can be used as an advanced anode for high-charge density Li-ion batteries. LiCl enhances Li diffusion suppressing the formation of Li dendrites resulting in improved cycle stability and rate capability.
As a starting material to prepare humidity-tolerant and inexpensive solid electrolyte Li₂ZrCl₆ for Li-ion batteries.
As an electrolyte additive to suppress the dendrite formation and stabilization of zinc anode-based batteries. LiCl ensures higher stability during the long cycling process.

Features and Benefits

Highly soluble in water
Exhibits good ionic conductivity
Low melting point
Compatible with other battery materials like lithium metal, graphite, and transition metal oxides

Lithium chloride corrects weakness and myopathology in a preclinical model of LGMD1D.

Andrew R Findlay et al.

Neurology. Genetics, 5(2), e318-e318 (2019-05-28)

To understand DNAJB6's function in skeletal muscle and identify therapeutic targets for limb-girdle muscular dystrophy 1D (LGMD1D). DNAJB6 knockout (KO) myoblasts were generated with Crispr/cas9 technology, and differentially accumulated proteins were identified using stable isotope labeling, followed by quantitative mass

Wnt affects symmetry and morphogenesis during post-embryonic development in colonial chordates.

Alessandro Di Maio et al.

EvoDevo, 6, 17-17 (2015-07-15)

Wnt signaling is one of the earliest and most highly conserved regulatory pathways for the establishment of the body axes during regeneration and early development. In regeneration, body axes determination occurs independently of tissue rearrangement and early developmental cues. Modulation

Phosphorylation of amyloid precursor protein at threonine 668 is essential for its copper-responsive trafficking in SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells.

Karla M Acevedo et al.

The Journal of biological chemistry, 289(16), 11007-11019 (2014-03-13)

Amyloid precursor protein (APP) undergoes post-translational modification, including O- and N-glycosylation, ubiquitination, and phosphorylation as it traffics through the secretory pathway. We have previously reported that copper promotes a change in the cellular localization of APP. We now report that

Single-molecule investigation of G-quadruplex folds of the human telomere sequence in a protein nanocavity.

Na An et al.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 111(40), 14325-14331 (2014-09-17)

Human telomeric DNA consists of tandem repeats of the sequence 5'-TTAGGG-3' that can fold into various G-quadruplexes, including the hybrid, basket, and propeller folds. In this report, we demonstrate use of the α-hemolysin ion channel to analyze these subtle topological

The mood stabilizer valproate activates human FGF1 gene promoter through inhibiting HDAC and GSK-3 activities.

Chien-Yu Kao et al.

Journal of neurochemistry, 126(1), 4-18 (2013-05-08)

Valproic acid (VPA) is the primary mood-stabilizing drug to exert neuroprotective effects and to treat bipolar disorder in clinic. Fibroblast growth factor 1 (FGF1) has been shown to regulate cell proliferation, cell division, and neurogenesis. Human FGF1 gene 1B promoter
