LITHUM
rtfte Minocfe Bmsfc I T H I U M presents properties that are stimulating L t o researchers, scientists and production-engineering men—properties that o p e n the door to possibilities in numberless fields. Lithium metal is lighter than magnesium or aluminum. It is extremely reactive, ductile, easily extruded and rolled, and readily melted or cast. Lithium salts have a l o w melting point. Analogous t o both alkalies and alkaline earths, they are highly reactive and form numerous l o w melting eutectics.
