Handling & Safety Considerations
⚠️ Highly Reactive & Pyrophoric!
- Water Sensitivity: Reacts violently with water, releasing flammable deuterium gas (D₂).
- Air Sensitivity: Decomposes upon exposure to air, producing lithium hydroxide and aluminum hydroxide.
- Handling Precautions:
- Use only in dry, inert atmospheres (glovebox or Schlenk techniques).
- Avoid contact with moisture, acids, and oxidizers.
Storage & Packaging
- Storage Conditions:
- Store in sealed, moisture-proof containers under an inert gas (argon or nitrogen).
- Keep in a cool, dry environment away from ignition sources.
- Personal Protective Equipment (PPE):
- Use gloves, protective eyewear, and flame-resistant lab coats.
- Handle in an inert gas atmosphere with explosion-proof equipment.
