Abstract
Lithium sulfide in the form of a finely divided, free-flowing powder of high purity is produced by reacting lithium carbonate powder in which the diameter of the particles is in the range of 1 to 10 microns with hydrogen sulfide at 500.degree. to 700.degree. C. Initial contact of the lithium carbonate with hydrogen sulfide takes place at a temperature substantially below the sintering temperature of lithium carbonate which is approximately 300.degree. to 400.degree. C.
