uses for lithium (wikipedia)

* Electrical and electronic uses:
o Lithium batteries are disposable (primary) batteries with lithium metal or lithium compounds as an anode. Lithium batteries are not to be confused with lithium-ion batteries, which are high energy-density rechargeable batteries. Other rechargeable batteries include the lithium-ion polymer battery, lithium iron phosphate battery, and the nanowire battery. New technologies are constantly being announced.
o Lithium niobate is used extensively in telecommunication products such as mobile phones and optical modulators, for such components as resonant crystals. Lithium applications are used in more than 60% of mobile phones.[68]
* Chemical uses:
o Lithium chloride and lithium bromide are extremely hygroscopic and are used as desiccants.
o Lithium metal is used in the preparation of organolithium compounds.
* General engineering:
o Lithium stearate is a common all-purpose, high-temperature lubricant.
o When used as a flux for welding or soldering, lithium promotes the fusing of metals during and eliminates the forming of oxides by absorbing impurities. Its fusing quality is also important as a flux for producing ceramics, enamels and glass.
* Alloys of the metal with aluminium, cadmium, copper and manganese are used to make high-performance aircraft parts (see also Lithium-aluminium alloys).
* Optics:
o Lithium is sometimes used in focal lenses, including spectacles and the glass for the 200-inch (5.08 m) telescope at Mt. Palomar.[citation needed]
o The high non-linearity of lithium niobate also makes it useful in non-linear optics applications.
o Lithium fluoride, artificially grown as crystal, is clear and transparent and often used in specialist optics for IR, UV and VUV (vacuum UV) applications. It has the lowest refractive index and the farthest transmission range in the deep UV of all common materials.
* Rocketry:
o Metallic lithium and its complex hydrides, such a Li[AlH4], are used as high energy additives to rocket propellants[3].
o Lithium peroxide, lithium nitrate, lithium chlorate and lithium perchlorate are used as oxidizers in rocket propellants, and also in oxygen candles that supply submarines and space capsules with oxygen.[69]
* Nuclear applications:
o Lithium deuteride was the fusion fuel of choice in early versions of the hydrogen bomb. When bombarded by neutrons, both 6Li and 7Li produce tritium—this reaction, which was not fully understood when hydrogen bombs were first tested, was responsible for the runaway yield of the Castle Bravo nuclear test. Tritium fuses with deuterium in a fusion reaction that is relatively easy to achieve. Although details remain secret, lithium-6 deuteride still apparently plays a role in modern nuclear weapons, as a fusion material.
o Lithium fluoride (highly enriched in the common isotope lithium-7) forms the basic constituent of the preferred fluoride salt mixture (LiF-BeF2) used in liquid-fluoride nuclear reactors. Lithium fluoride is exceptionally chemically stable and LiF/BeF2 mixtures have low melting points and the best neutronic properties of fluoride salt combinations appropriate for reactor use.[clarification needed] Finely divided lithium fluoride powder has been used for thermoluminescent radiation dosimetry (TLD): When a sample of such is exposed to radiation, it accumulates crystal defects which, when heated, resolve via a release of bluish light whose intensity is proportional to the absorbed dose, thus allowing this to be quantified (see Eugene Tochilin, et al.).
o In conceptualized nuclear fusion power plants, lithium will be used to produce tritium in magnetically confined reactors using deuterium and tritium as the fuel. Tritium does not occur naturally and will be produced by surrounding the reacting plasma with a 'blanket' containing lithium where neutrons from the deuterium-tritium reaction in the plasma will react with the lithium to produce more tritium. 6Li + n → 4He + 3T. Various means of doing this will be tested at the ITER reactor being built at Cadarache, France.
o Lithium is used as a source for alpha particles, or helium nuclei. When 7Li is bombarded by accelerated protons 8Be is formed, which undergoes spontaneous fission to form two alpha particles. This was the first man-made nuclear reaction, produced by Cockroft and Walton in 1929.
* Other uses:
o Lithium hydroxide (LiOH) is an important compound of lithium obtained from lithium carbonate (Li2CO3). It is a strong base, and when heated with a fat it produces a lithium soap. Lithium soap has the ability to thicken oils, and it is used to manufacture lubricating greases.
o Lithium hydroxide and lithium peroxide are used in confined areas, such as aboard spacecraft and submarines, for air purification. Lithium hydroxide absorbs carbon dioxide from the air by reacting with it to form lithium carbonate, and is preferred over other alkaline hydroxides for its low weight. Lithium peroxide (Li2O2) in presence of moisture not only absorbs carbon dioxide to form lithium carbonate, but also releases oxygen. For example 2 Li2O2 + 2 CO2 → 2 Li2CO3 + O2.
o Lithium compounds are used as pyrotechnic colorants and oxidizers in red fireworks and flares.
o The Mark 50 Torpedo Stored Chemical Energy Propulsion System (SCEPS) uses a small tank of sulfur hexafluoride gas which is sprayed over a block of solid lithium. The reaction generates enormous heat which is used to generate steam from seawater. The steam propels the torpedo in a closed Rankine cycle.[70]

YES!
That's her.
word up groove flow have an EPIC WEEKEND!
PEACE!

The bad part is that he didn't copy and paste it.

[Derick]

i did copy and paste from wiki, i mentioned earlier I was too lazy to edit.

[WyoIan]

Was up Covino, loved the show today. I agree with you on the topless thing, if you have a hot nussie why would you want to share that with any ol' body. Have a happy 1st Dadbro's day! I love havin somebody on THE Show who is goin through the whole fatherhood thing!

[Covino]

I want to know when the last time Covino fought with or wrangled 3 women over 200 pounds? I bet $1000 that he would not be able to do it.

That's why I'm not a cop. He's trained and is expected to do it. I didn't see much fighting or a 3 on one. If the cop was black I'd feel the same way. He failed and it went downhill from there.

i think the cop failed in controlling the situation, but after the woman touched him, fair game, ring the bell bitch, fights on

Thanks WyoIAn & DBN enjoy the weekend Dadbros.

[i bleed green]

I could really use a nap.

Watch England play...

That's what I'm going to do right now... Have a great weekend all!!!

0-0 tie.How exciting. :killme:

[NussieT]

Just got caught up on all the posts...

1) I'm so sorry to hear that Iva, I really hope things with your mom get better.
2) B... Texting & driving is now illegal in Manitoba as well, although I don't think it's aganist the law to look down while driving.
3) LeNeve, you have to be 18 to purchase fireworks in Manitoba, not sure about the rest of Canada. I do know that you are not able to bring them over the border from the states. In Lac Du Bonnet, super close to GIW's cabin on Canada Day they have an amazing firework display choreographed to music... it's pretty cool.
4) :roflmao: :roflmao: Jesus....

0-0 tie.How exciting. :killme:

the England game is why people don't like soccer, however the US game is why you should watch soccer

[Brampton]

If a white guy wants to bang a black chick......

1. Be super skinny or extremely obese
2. wear wife beaters......a lot
3. Speak like a black guy
4. Be willing to have kids (multiple kids)
5. Have low self esteem

or have lots of money, and buy her stuff.......... :roflmao:

[Brampton]

I really hope that Spot doesn't go to the whorehouse..........Really!

[Brampton]

Lakers win, and fans riot and start stealing shit.

I thought that was the US sprinting team training..............Hmm.....guess I'm wrong

[Brampton]

Kinishiwa....Bitches!
