The invention discloses high-compaction spherical
lithium iron phosphate, a preparation method and a
lithium ion battery containing the high-compaction spherical
lithium iron phosphate. The method comprises the following steps that 1) a
carbon source, iron salt,
phosphate salt and lithium salt mixed
aqueous solution is prepared, and sand
grinding is carried out until D50 is equal to 0.5-1 microns,and D90 is equal to 1.2-2.3 microns; 2) obtained precursor
slurry is dried and granulated in a pressure type
spray drying device, and the particle size of
granulation is controlled to be as follows:D50 is equal to 4-8 microns, and D90 is equal to 10-25 microns; and 3)
sintering is carried out under the protection of
inert gas so as to obtain the high-compaction spherical
lithium iron phosphate.According to the high-compaction spherical
lithium iron phosphate, the preparation method and the
lithium ion battery containing the high-compaction spherical
lithium iron phosphate, the high-compaction spherical lithium
iron phosphate is good in
ductility, the compaction density of a prepared
pole piece is 2.45 g / cm<3> or above, the problems that in the prior art, lithium iron
phosphate preparedthrough a crushing technology in the current market is not easy to disperse in the homogenizing process, the efficiency is low, the
solid content is low, the
energy consumption is high and the like can be solved, and meanwhile, the problems that the compaction density of common spherical lithium iron
phosphate is relatively low, and the integrity of a coated
carbon film in the prior art is poor and is liable to fall off can be solved.
