Product Information
Name:Lithiumsilicon
Brand:Biosynth
Description:Lithiumsilicon is a semiconductor material that has been used to fabricate rechargeable batteries. Lithiumsilicon can be activated by heating it in an oxygen-free environment, which results in the formation of an oxide layer on the surface. This layer protects the lithium from oxidation and facilitates release of lithium ions during discharge and recharging. Lithiumsilcon is also found to be synergistic with biomolecules, as it has been shown to bind to DNA and inhibit its synthesis. The reactivity of this material is dependent on temperature, as thermal excitation can induce a change in state. Lithiumsilicon has been shown to adsorb onto surfaces at elevated temperatures, which is why it is often used for heat-exchange applications.
