Abstract

The invention relates to a method for producing lithium hexafluorophosphate. The method comprises the following steps: (1), rectifying and purifying industrial anhydrous hydrogen fluoride and removing moisture and heavy metal impurities therein; (2), enabling the rectified anhydrous hydrogen fluoride and phosphorus pentachloride to react to prepare the mixed gas of phosphorus pentafluoride and chlorine hydride; (3), dissolving high-pure lithium fluoride in an anhydrous hydrogen fluoride solution to form an anhydrous hydrogen fluoride solution containing the lithium fluoride; (4), cooling and guiding the mixed gas of the phosphorus pentafluoride and the chlorine hydride to the anhydrous hydrogen fluoride solution containing the lithium fluoride, reacting, crystallizing, separating and drying to obtain a pure lithium hexafluorophosphate product; and (5), continuously guiding the unreacted gas of the phosphorus pentafluoride and the chlorine hydride after a reaction to the other anhydrous hydrogen fluoride solution containing the lithium fluoride and continuously reacting to obtain a lithium hexafluorophosphate finished product. The invention uses the industrial anhydrous hydrogen fluoride, the phosphorus pentachloride and the high-pure lithium fluoride as raw materials to prepare the lithium hexafluorophosphate product, has rich raw material resources, low production cost, high reaction rate, high product quality and thorough reaction and can realize semi-continuous production.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for producing lithium hexafluorophosphate, belonging to the technical field of lithium ion batteries. Background technique [0002] In recent years, lithium hexafluorophosphate (LiPF 6 ) is selected as the electrolyte of the lithium-ion secondary battery, and lithium hexafluorophosphate is dissolved in some non-aqueous organic solvents to form the electrolyte of the lithium-ion secondary battery. Lithium-ion secondary batteries are internationally recognized as ideal chemical energy sources. They are small in size, large in capacity, can be charged and discharged 500 times, and their capacity is only reduced by 3%. They are widely used in mobile phones, laptop computers, and camcorders. It is used as a dopant for making wafers in the electronics industry and as a catalyst for organic synthesis. Currently, because of the preparation of lithium hexafluorophosphate (LiPF 6 ) has many production links, complex process a...
