Lithium Hydroxide Monohydrate Supplier
LiOH · H₂O
Hayes Chemical Solutions sources and supplies lithium hydroxide monohydrate for industrial buyers, including manufacturers of lithium-based lubricating greases. We discuss the required grade, specification, quantity and delivery terms for UK and international enquiries.
About this product
Lithium hydroxide monohydrate (LiOH·H₂O) is a strong inorganic base produced from lithium carbonate or lithium minerals. In its technical grade form it is a white crystalline solid that is highly soluble in water and valued across several industrial sectors for its chemical reactivity and alkaline properties.
One of its most established industrial uses is in the manufacture of lithium-based lubricating greases, where it reacts with fatty acids to form a thickening structure that delivers exceptional performance across wide temperature ranges. These lithium greases are widely used in automotive, aerospace and heavy industrial applications.
Lithium hydroxide monohydrate is also used in the production of specialty ceramics and glass compositions, in chemical processing as a reagent or pH modifier, and in various industrial manufacturing operations where a high-purity lithium compound is required.
Key industrial applications
Lithium-Based Lubricating Greases
Reacted with fatty acids to produce lithium soap thickeners — the basis of the most widely used class of industrial and automotive grease.
Ceramics and Glass
Used as a flux and modifier in specialty ceramics, glass-ceramics and enamel compositions to adjust thermal and physical properties.
Chemical Processing
Employed as a strong base and reagent in chemical synthesis, pH adjustment and various industrial manufacturing processes.
Specialist Industrial
Applied in a range of industrial contexts where a high-purity, reactive lithium compound is required.

Lithium Hydroxide Monohydrate: buyer questions
Is lithium hydroxide monohydrate the same as anhydrous lithium hydroxide?
No. Monohydrate contains water of crystallisation and is identified here as LiOH · H₂O, CAS 1310-66-3. Specify the exact form and grade required when you enquire.
Can I enquire about lithium hydroxide for lubricating grease?
Yes. HCS welcomes industrial lithium hydroxide monohydrate enquiries for lithium-based grease manufacture. Send your application and acceptance specification so suitable supply options can be discussed.
What information is needed for a quotation?
Provide your grade and specification, quantity, preferred packaging, delivery destination and required date. Include expected repeat volumes where relevant. Prices, availability, packaging and minimum order quantities are confirmed upon enquiry.
Can I request technical and safety documentation?
Please request the specification and relevant safety documentation for the proposed material before ordering. Handling, storage and transport arrangements must be checked against that documentation and your site requirements.
