Lithium metatungstate (Cat No.:M110277) is a chemical compound composed of lithium, tungsten, and oxygen. It’s typically utilized as a heavy liquid for mineral separation processes, where its high density and low viscosity allow for the effective separation of minerals by density differences. Lithium metatungstate is non-toxic and environmentally friendly compared to traditional heavy liquids like bromoform. Its solutions are water-soluble and can be adjusted to specific densities as required. This makes it a valuable tool in geology and mineralogy for the purification and analysis of mineral samples.
