Lithium Silicate is the smallest stable Silica on earth. One Silicon dioxide (SiO2) molecule is attached to a Lithium atom.

Lithium Silicate forms a stable high ratio, low viscosity solution.
Once dried, Lithium Silicate is relatively insoluble compared to Potassium and Sodium Silicates.
Efflorescence Scale: Li < K < Na
Refractoriness: Lithium Silicates have higher melting point and may change the refractory properties of Sodium and Potassium Silicates.
Adhesion: Addition of Lithium Silicate to Sodium or Potassium Silicates may improve the adhesion to various different surfaces.
