Abstract

The invention discloses a method for preparing lithium titanate with a spinel structure. Lithium carbonate, titanium dioxide and carbon black which are low in price and easy to obtain are used as raw materials; the lithium titanate (LiTi2O4) is synthesized by a one-step solid phase reaction method. The raw materials are fully mixed and react for 4 to 36 hours at a temperature between 700 and 1,300 DEG C under an argon atmosphere or a vacuum atmosphere to prepare the lithium titanate (LiTi2O4) with the spinel structure which is pure or contains a little carbon black. A product is ground through a planetary ball mill; the granularity of the product reaches between 0.5 and 5 mu m; and the cycle ratio capacity of the product reaches between 100 and 160 mAh / g. The method has a simple process and low prices of raw materials and is suitable for industrial production; and the product has excellent electrochemical performance and can be used a material for the cathode of a high-performance lithium ion battery.
