Application
The raw material for the preparation of metallic lithium. Flux for metal production by electrolysis (such as titanium and aluminum production), used as aluminum welding agent, air conditioner dehumidifier and special cement raw material, also used in flame, in the battery industry for the production of lithium-manganese battery electrolyte, etc. .
Anhydrous LiCl is mainly used for electrolytic preparation of metal lithium, aluminum flux and flux and moisture absorption (dehumidification) agent in non-refrigerated air conditioners.
Metal lithium can be obtained by electrolyzing the mixed molten salt of LiCl/KCl at 600 °C. Industrial metal industrial is produced by this method. Lithium chloride is also used as a moisture scavenger in air conditioning systems, as a good flux in the electrolytic production of metals or in the preparation of powders (such as in the production of titanium and aluminum), as a precipitant for RNA, and as an additive in the Stille reaction .
Lithium chloride can be formulated with DMF in different concentrations as a solvent for dissolving polymers. Commonly used as an eluent for GPC measurements of molecular weight.

Company Profile
Storage and transportation: Packaging should be complete, should be safe loading. During transport, to ensure that the container does not leak, did not fall, do not fall, no damage. Strictly prohibited to mix with and oxidants and food chemicals . Transit should avoid exposure, rain, high temperature. After transportation, the vehicle should be thoroughly cleaned.
The company was built up and put into production since March of 2005, and invested into 35 million RMB accumulatively. Now the company owns 3 production lines, namely, strontium , strontium chloride hexahydrate and strontium chloride anhydrous production line, with yearly production capacity upto 7,500 metric tons, 7,500 metric tons and 3,000 metric tons respectively.
After many years of technology upgrade, the company has realized an unique whole-sealing, continuous and automated production technology, which ensures stable product quality, greatly improves production efficiency and reduces the labor strength of operation workers.
The company has a technical and managerial team with rich experience in the development and production of strontium-salts' further processing products. The company has over 110 employees, including over 40 professional workers and 20 intermediate and senior technical workers.
The company enjoys many invention patents and utility model patents with many products entitled as "New Hi-Tech Products ". In September of 2010, the company became a membership unit of CISIA. And in July of 2012, the company's technical center was affirmed and named as "Chongqing Municipal Technical Center" by Chongqing Government.
The company has self-export rights with its products exported to Japan, South Korea, India, EU, American countries and South Africa etc. Over 60% of total products are for export. Since its establishment date, the company has been titled as a " large taxpayer" by Dazu People's Government and as a "A Grade Tax-Paying Credit Enterprise" by Dazu National Taxation Bureau and Local Taxation Bureau for successive years.
Founded in August of 2008, Chongqing Yuanhe Fine Chemicals Inc. (hereinafter referred to as "the company") is located in the beautiful Dazu District of Chongqing, which is entitled "the home to strontium". Based on the excellent strontium ore resources in Dazu District, the company is specialized in the development, production and sale of strontium salts and barium salts. Being a small shareholder and controlling shareholder of several strontium-related companies, the company enjoys a strong supply chain advantage, which lays a solid foundation for sustainable development.
The company acquired ISO9001 quality management system certification on December 7, 2006, and OHSAS18001 occupational health and safety management system certification and ISO14001 environment management system certification.
In August of 2004, the company prepared to be constructed in a wasteland. At that time, everywhere full of dust was still fresh in our mind and even the porridge we ate was deep gray.
On March 8th, 2005, products like strontium , strontium chloride and manganese chloride began to be produced and the annual production capacity reached 5,000 tons.
On December 7th, 2006, we were ISO 9001 certified.
In July of 2007, we were awarded the title of "Chongqing Demonstration Enterprise of Clean Production".
In August of 2008, the first-stage extension project was finished and put into use. The construction of chemical-reaction system for the acid station, strontium , and manganese chloride and strontium chloride production line was accomplished, which enabled the company to produce 10,000 tons products annually.
In October of 2008, company acquired the title of "Second-level Safety Production Standardization.
In October of 2010, the second-stage extension project was finished and put into use. The systematic construction of strontium chloride crystallization and strontium chloride anhydrous production line was accomplished, which enabled the company to produce 18,000 tons products annually.
In March of 2011, the technical improvement for the strontium production line was completed. The annual capacity reached 20,000 tons.
Resource integration: we share stocks in Chongqing Qinglong Fine Strontium Chemicals Co., Ltd., Tongliang County Yuxia Fine Chemical Co., Ltd., Dazu Tiandi Strontium Ore Co., Ltd., Dazu Strontium Ore Developing Co., Ltd., and Sunrise Strontium Industry Co., Ltd., which enables us to enjoy an enterprise group with most perfect industrial chain from raw material to strontium metal and lays a firm foundation for long-term sound development.
