Abstract

The invention discloses a method for preparing sub-micrometer lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4). The method comprises the following steps of: mixing an iron source, a lithium source, a phosphorous source and a doping ion-containing compound according to a molar ratio of (lithium + doping ions) to iron to phosphorus of 1:1:1, or a molar ratio of lithium to (iron + doping ions) to phosphorus of 1:1:1, and then adding the mixture into an organic solvent, wherein the mole ratio of the doping ions to the phosphorus is 0.01-0.15:1, and the solid-to-liquid ratio after the reaction generates a precipitate is 1:10-1:2; reacting at a constant temperature of between 190 and 320 DEG C under the normal temperature to prepare a LiFePO4 material of which the particle diameter is 0.1 to 0.9 mu m; mixing the LiFePO4 powder material and an organic carbon source; after ball milling and uniform mixing, putting the mixture into a calcining furnace and heating the mixture under the protection of an inert gas and maintaining the temperature; and cooling the mixture to the room temperature to obtain a LiFePO4/C cathode material of which the surface is wrapped with carbon and the particle diameter is 0.1 to 0.9 mu m.
