At the same time, it can also form a protective film on the surface of the metal, reducing the oxidative loss of the metal in the high-temperature melting process.<\/p>\n In the field of analytical chemistry: Because Li\u2082B\u2084O\u2087 powder has good solubility for many metal oxides, it is often used in the preparation of fluxes for the decomposition of samples of ores, rocks, etc. for elemental analysis. It is a commonly used sample pre-treatment reagent in modern analytical techniques such as X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy (XRF) and inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP – MS).<\/p>\nCharacteristic<\/span><\/h2>\n
