Application

Lithium Deuteride (LiD) is the deuterated analog of lithium hydride (LiH), where hydrogen is replaced by its isotope, deuterium. It is a white, crystalline, and highly stable compound widely used in nuclear fusion research, isotope chemistry, and advanced energy applications. LiD is notable for its role as a fusion fuel in thermonuclear reactions and as a neutron moderator in nuclear reactors. Its exceptional stability and high energy density make it a key material in defense, scientific, and energy research.
