Application

Lithium Iodide Hydrate, a white crystalline substance known for its extreme hygroscopic properties, serves several important functions. This versatile compound, which can appear as granules or fused masses, tends to become yellow upon exposure to the atmosphere due to the release of iodine. Primarily, it is utilized in air conditioning systems and acts as a catalyst in acetal formation processes. Additionally, it plays a crucial role in the dehydration of alkali metal iodides in a vacuum and the dehydration of lithium iodide hydrate crystals. There are also two other hydrates of this compound: LiI·2H2O and LiI·H2O.
