Metal Sheet
chemical
element:
Li
( foil/sheet )
Ultra pure quantities of the element Lithium (atomic number 3), sealed under Argon gas.
Ideal for those conducting experiments/producing
alloys with pure Lithium metal, battery research, etc. Lithium is a very soft metal that can
easily be cut with a knife. It reacts violently with water, liberating
explosive Hydrogen gas. It is a flammable metal and can
cause severe burns if it comes in contact with the skin. Like all alkali metals, Lithium
should only be handled by those familiar with its properties.
Lithium foil rool & reel is shipped in a sealed bag under an Argon atmosphere.
Lithium is a very lightweight metal (so lightweight, that it actually floats on water).
Dimensions are: 4.5" wide x about 15' long. Thickness is 0.01", total weight: is a tad over 100 grams (3.6 ounces).
Caution:
Use safety precautions
(wear eye protection and gloves) when working with Lithium metal.
Violently reacts with water and may ignite. Tarnishes almost instantly on exposure to air. See MSDS link below.
