Lithium hexafluorosilicate is an inorganic chemical compound with the chemical formula Li2SiF6.[1][2]

Lithium hexafluorosilicate can be obtained by reacting hexafluorosilicic acid with lithium hydroxide or lithium carbonate or by reacting silicon tetrafluoride with lithium fluoride.[3]

H2[SiF6] + 2LiOH → Li2[SiF6] + 2H2O
