LiPAA
LiPAA, or lithium polyacrylate, is the lithium salt of polyacrylic acid (PAA). It is a polyelectrolyte composed of repeating acrylic acid units where carboxylate groups are neutralized by lithium counterions. LiPAA is typically prepared by partially or fully neutralizing polyacrylic acid with lithium hydroxide or lithium carbonate, producing a material that can be processed as a solid, a gel, or an aqueous solution depending on hydration and cross-linking.
Properties of LiPAA are governed by the degree of neutralization, hydration level, and any cross-linking or
Applications of LiPAA are primarily in energy storage and electrochemistry. It is used as an aqueous-processable
Safety and handling follow general polymer and lithium salt guidelines. See also polyacrylic acid, polymer electrolytes,
