Problems solved by technology

This method results in agglomerated buildup of the conductive agent
Patent CN100486004C proposes a method for preparing lithium iron phosphate by reacting ferric salt and lithium dihydrogen phosphate, but since there is no reducing agent in this method, a large amount of ferric iron will be left, which will affect the performance of lithium iron phosphate material
Since iron ions are produced by the decomposition of iron salts, there are problems such as that the particles of the product will not achieve densification

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of lithium ion battery cathode materials, and in particular relates to a synthesis method of a high-density lithium iron phosphate material. Background technique [0002] At present, the application fields of lithium-ion batteries are becoming wider and wider. Lithium iron phosphate power batteries in particular have safety, cycle life and high-temperature performance unmatched by other cathode materials, and are widely used in electric vehicles and other fields. However, the performance of lithium iron phosphate materials is generally poor, especially in indicators such as discharge capacity and density. The existing technology generally adopts ferrous oxalate or ferric phosphate system, which is made by adding additives such as lithium source and carbon source, and sintering at high temperature. The sintering temperature is generally not lower than 650°C. Under high temperature conditions, the carbon so...
