Lithium orthosilicate(Cat No.:M058562), with the chemical formula Li₄SiO₄, is a white, crystalline solid known for its ability to absorb carbon dioxide efficiently. This makes it particularly valuable in environmental applications, such as carbon capture technologies where it can help reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Lithium orthosilicate is also explored as a potential material in nuclear fusion reactors, serving as a breeder material to produce tritium when exposed to neutrons. Additionally, its thermal stability and ionic conductivity properties make it of interest in ceramic industries and solid-state lithium-ion battery components.
