Safety & Transport Information
A powerful reducing agent. Upon contact with moisture, it decomposes into lithium hydroxide, lithium compounds, and ammonia. The powder may ignite spontaneously in moist air. Flammable at elevated temperatures; ignites and burns intensely in air. Violent reaction with silicon tetrafluoride, copper(I) chloride + heat. To fight fire, use dry chemical, sand, graphite; avoid use of water or carbon tetrachloride. When heated to decomposition it emits very toxic fumes of Li2O and NOx. Used as a strong reducing agent in organic synthesis and a solid electrolyte in lithium batteries. See also LITHIUM COMPOUNDS and NITRIDES.
Risk Codes:
R11 - Highly flammable
R14 - Reacts violently with water
R14/15 - Reacts violently with water, liberating extremely flammable gases
R29 - Contact with water liberates toxic gas.
R34 - Causes burns
Safety Codes:
S16 - Keep away from sources of ignition - No smoking
S22 - Do not breathe dust
S26 - In case of contact with eyes, rinse immediately with plenty of water and seek medical advice
S27 - Take off immediately all contaminated clothing
S36/37/39 - Wear suitable protective clothing, gloves and eye/face protection
S45 - In case of accident or if you feel unwell seek medical advice immediately (show the label where possible)
Hazard Symbols:
Ignites in air, use dry chemicals to extinguish (“Lith-X.”)
