Abstract

The invention discloses a process for preparing an LiFePO4/C composite cathode material by a precursor in-situ polymerization-carbothermic process. The process comprises that a phosphate group compound and a ferric iron source compound are dissolved in water in a mole ratio of (1-1.1):1, then an organic monomer is added, an oxidizing agent is added to oxidize and polymerize the monomer which coats a generated iron phosphate surface, the pH of a solution system is controlled to be between 1.5 and 3, a precipitate is washed, cleaned, then subjected to ball mill mixing with a lithium source and roasted in protective gas, and then the LiFePO4/C composite cathode material is obtained. Polymer which coats the iron phosphate surface is pyrolyzed and carbonized into carbon reduction ferric iron, serves as a carbon source in a roasting process and facilitates limiting of agglomeration of microscopic particles of the material. According to the LiFePO4/C composite cathode material prepared by the process, the primary particle size of the material is nanoscale, and the material is good in electrical conductivity and performance under conditions of high multiplying power and large current charging and discharging and has large specific capacity.

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a preparation method of lithium iron phosphate, a positive electrode material for lithium ion batteries, in particular to a precursor in-situ polymerization-carbothermal reduction method for preparing LiFePO 4 / C composite cathode material method. Background technique [0002] LiFePO with olivine crystal structure 4 It can reversibly insert and extract lithium ions, and its advantages include: high theoretical specific capacity (about 170mAh / g); stable discharge platform around 3.4V; rich source of raw materials and low price; excellent cycle performance, stability and security etc. However, LiFePO 4 Poor intrinsic electronic conductivity and low ion diffusion coefficient restrict its charge and discharge performance under high current. In order to overcome this defect, in recent years, LiFePO modified by carbon coating 4 / C composites have been extensively studied as cathode materials for power lithium-ion batteries. Car...
