T/QHLM 01-2018
Basic Information
Scope
Scope: This standard specifies the product classification, technical requirements, test methods, inspection rules, and marking, packaging, and transportation requirements for lithium carbonate products from salt lake brine. This standard applies to lithium carbonate produced from lithium-containing salt lake brine using various processes; Main technical content: Explanation of the main provisions of the standard. This standard applies to lithium carbonate produced from lithium-containing salt lake brine using various processes. Its main technical requirements are: on the premise of meeting the index requirements of industrial-grade and battery-grade lithium carbonate in the market, the main lithium carbonate content and some metal element indicators are improved, and the chloride and sulfate indicators in battery-grade lithium carbonate are reduced.
