Problems solved by technology

But LiFePO 4 There are two obvious disadvantages: one is the low electronic conductivity, resulting in poor high-rate charge and discharge performance and low actual specific capacity; the other is low tap density, resulting in low volume specific capacity
However, the shortcoming of low tap density has not been well resolved, LiFePO 4 The theoretical density is only 3.6g / cm 3 , much lower than that of LiCoO 2 (5.1g / cm 3 ), LiNiO 2 (4.8g / cm 3 ) and LiMn 2 o 4 (4.2g / cm 3 )
However, in these published patents, the method for preparing spherical lithium iron phosphate requires high process control, the process is complicated, and it is difficult to realize industrialization

Embodiment 1

[0024] 0.21 g of LiOH·H 2 O was added to the prepared 0.5mol / L HNO 3 Dissolve in the solution, then add 1.11 g of FePO 4 4H 2 O and 0.44 g vitamin C, stir the solution and mix well. use NH 3 The water was adjusted to just precipitate (pH = 7). Then the solution was put into a microwave oven, and the solvent was evaporated to dryness by alternately heating for 5 seconds and intermittently for 5 seconds to obtain a yellow powder. Grind the obtained yellow powder into fine particles, put it into a porcelain boat, put it into a high-temperature furnace, and raise the temperature to 700°C at a rate of 5°C / min in a high-purity nitrogen atmosphere, and keep it warm for 6 hours to obtain a spherical lithium iron phosphate sample. The tap density is 2g / cm 3 . XRD test shows pure lithium iron phosphate with olive structure. The topography of the sample and the first charge-discharge curve at 0.1C are shown in figure 1 and figure 2 middle. Such as figure 1 As shown, the obta...

Abstract

The invention discloses high-volume and capacity ratio spherical lithium ferric phosphate and a preparation method thereof. The method comprises the following steps of: preparing a spherical precursor by combining with an alternative microwave / solvent hot method, then heating at high temperature under the protection of inert gas to obtain regularly spherical lithium ferric phosphate, wherein the tap density of the prepared lithium ferric phosphate reaches 2g / cm3. The method of the invention can be used for controlling the degree of crystallization and the granule size of the heated material. Meanwhile, the method also can control the structure and the composition of a phase through regulating the proportions of raw materials, thereby ensuring that the combined product has the quality meeting requirements.
