Lithium silicate is a high-performance inorganic treatment used to densify, harden, and protect concrete surfaces. Because of its small ionic radius and favorable reaction kinetics with free calcium in cementitious matrices, lithium silicate is widely adopted where long-term abrasion resistance, low dusting, and improved chemical resistance are required.

Lithium carbonate (Li₂CO₃) accelerates early hardening in cement, enabling rapid construction and durable structures.applications like rapid-setting concrete for construction and lithium-enhanced concrete for infrastructure.

Concrete is an indispensable and important material in construction projects, and its performance directly affects the quality of the project. In recent years, researchers have discovered that adding lithium silicate to concrete mortar can significantly improve the strength, durability and crack resistance of concrete.

Lithium silicate, also known as lithium water glass, is a compound formed by the combination of metallic lithium and silicate structure, with the molecular formula Li2SiO3. Lithium silicate is a odorless, odorless, transparent liquid with a pH value of around 11 and is alkaline. Soluble in water and alkaline solutions, but insoluble in alcohols and organic solvents. Like sodium silicate and potassium silicate, lithium silicate dissociates from gel by the action of acid. It has self drying properties, and after the evaporation of water in the solution, it can generate a dry film that is insoluble in water. It has water irreversibility, so the waterproof effect is particularly obvious.
