Used as an electrolyte component in lithium-ion batteries due to its ability to stabilize the lithium ion conduction process. It enhances battery performance by improving ionic conductivity and thermal stability. Also employed in electrochemical applications where a biodegradable and non-toxic lithium source is preferred. Its compatibility with various solvents makes it suitable for use in gel polymer electrolytes and solid-state battery systems. Additionally, it finds use in research settings for synthesizing lithium-containing compounds and as a reagent in organic synthesis requiring mild lithium donors.
