Lithium Industry

Lithium is a chemical element with symbol Li and atomic number 3, a soft, silvery-white alkali metal. Lithium and its compounds have several industrial applications, including heat-resistant glass and ceramics, lithium grease lubricants, flux additives for iron, steel and aluminium production, and lithium metal and lithium-ion batteries; battery production alone consumes more than three-quarters of all lithium produced, making battery demand the dominant driver of the modern lithium industry.
