Problems solved by technology

[0007] Currently, LiFePO 4 The preparation method mainly contains solid phase reaction method, liquid phase method (co-precipitation method, hydrothermal method, sol-gel method and emulsion method etc.), the common feature of all existing methods is exactly the high-purity inert gas that needs flow or high Pure nitrogen protection, flowing inert gas protection technology greatly increases the synthesis cost of lithium iron phosphate
Moreover, due to the incompleteness of all existing synthesis technologies, the consistency of the obtained lithium iron phosphate products is poor, that is to say, the physical and chemical uniformity of the products synthesized by different batches is poor, and the electrochemical performance is inconsistent. further increase its production cost
In addition, lithium iron phosphate also has its own inherent disadvantages, mainly because its bulk density is low, and its theoretical density is 3.6g / cm 3 , its actual tap density is generally only 1.6-1.8g / cm 3
Moreover, lithium iron phosphate is a semiconductor material with poor conductivity.
The existing immature synthesis technology of lithium iron phosphate and the inherent shortcomings of lithium iron phosphate have seriously hindered the large-scale industrial production process of lithium iron phosphate, and also affected the application of lithium iron phosphate materials in various types of lithium ion batteries, especially lithium iron phosphate. Wide application in the field of ion power battery manufacturing
