Abstract

The invention discloses a method for preparing lithium iron phosphate material and cladding the material with carbon. The method relates to the industrialized production of lithium ion cell anode material. The method is characterized by comprising the following steps: introducing the mixed gas of carbon containing gaseous organic matter and high purity nitrogen gas into a revolving furnace sintering lithium iron phosphate; carbonizing the carbon containing gaseous organic matter into nano carbon and carbon nano tubes under the sintering condition of high temperature and no oxygen; and dispersing the nano carbon and carbon nano tubes evenly and cladding the surfaces of the lithium iron phosphate particles with the nano carbon and carbon nano tubes so as to make the synthesized lithium iron phosphate material show excellent heavy current charging and discharging performances. Simultaneously, the reducing atmosphere produced by the carbon containing organic gas in the carbonization process can be used to rapidly reduce ferric iron and quicken the generation of lithium iron phosphate.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to a method for manufacturing a cathode material of a lithium ion battery in the field of energy materials. Background technique [0002] Lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO) with olivine structure 4 ) material, which has a stable crystal structure. It is recognized as the best cathode material for manufacturing high-safety, low-cost, and long-life lithium-ion batteries. But the material conducts electricity poorly. People increase the conductivity of the material by coating the surface of the particles with carbon. At present, there are three methods of coated carbon technology: 1. Add a certain amount of ultra-fine carbon powder directly to the raw material through ball milling, and these conductive carbons are dispersed in the lithium iron phosphate product after sintering; 2. Add a certain amount of carbon powder containing Carbon macromolecular organic matter, such as sugar, polypropylene, etc., is carbonized during the sinter...
