Problems solved by technology

The current price of lithium iron phosphate is about twice that of lithium manganese oxide cathode material, which greatly hinders the development of lithium iron phosphate power batteries. However, the products prepared by traditional high-temperature solid-phase method have serious agglomeration and wide particle size distribution. The consistency and stability are poor, the calcination time is long, the temperature is high, a large amount of carbon dioxide and other gases are generated in the middle process, and multiple ball milling is required, the energy consumption is high, the synthesis process needs to use protective gas, the cost is high, and the yield of large-scale production is low.
