[0020] see figure 1 , which is a flowchart of a method for preparing a lithium iron phosphate precursor according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention. The present invention specifically provides a high-shear method for preparing a lithium iron phosphate precursor, comprising the following steps: weighing lithium salt, ferrous salt and phosphate in a molar ratio of 3: (0.9-1.5): 1.2 (step S1) ; Formulate the lithium salt, ferrous salt and phosphate into a standard aqueous solution of a certain concentration (step S2); weigh the carbon source according to the mass fraction of 1-50g / L (step S3), and formulate the carbon source into A standard aqueous solution of a certain concentration (step S4); using a high-shear mixer to rapidly mix the above materials continuously or dropwise (step S5).

[0021] In a preferred embodiment, the above-mentioned lithium salt is one of lithium hydroxide and lithium phosphate or a mixture of both.

Embodiment approach 1

[0028] Weigh lithium salt, ferrous salt and phosphate according to molar ratio Li: Fe: P = 3: (0.98 ~ 1): 1.2. 79.238g (ie 0.294mol) of FeSO 4 ·7H 2 O was dissolved in water and diluted to 150 mL. Add 35g of glucose to the phosphoric acid solution and dilute to 100mL.

[0029] The above materials were circulated in a high shear continuous mixer to achieve uniform mixing.

[0030] Add the high-shear mixed precursor into the autoclave, and after purging the air in the autoclave with an inert gas, seal the autoclave and react at 140-350°C for 30-600 minutes.

[0031] After the above reaction is completed, quickly cool to 30°C with condensed water, take out the product, filter and wash until there is no sulfate ion; the filter cake is vacuum-dried at 80 ~ 120°C for 12 hours.

Abstract

The invention provides a preparation method of a lithium iron phosphate precursor. The preparation method of the lithium iron phosphate precursor comprises the following steps of: weighing lithium salt, ferrous salt and phosphate in a mol ratio of 3: (0.9-1.5): 1.2; preparing the lithium salt, the ferrous salt and the phosphate into a standard aqueous solution at a certain concentration; weighing a carbon source according to a mass fraction of 1-50 g / L; preparing the carbon source into a standard aqueous solution at a certain concentration; and quickly mixing the materials continuously or dropwise by using a high-shear mixer. By a high-shear mixing technology, precursor particles are mixed uniformly by an impinging stream, the particle size and the particle size distribution of the precursor particles are reduced, the electrochemical performance of a LiFePO4 / C material is improved as well as the reaction time is shortened; and the preparation method is small in equipment investment and simple in process operation, can achieve both intermittent operation and large-scale continuous production and has a relatively good commercial prospect.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a lithium battery technology, in particular to a preparation method of a lithium iron phosphate precursor. Background technique [0002] The positive electrode material is the core of lithium-ion batteries. At this stage, lithium cobalt oxide (LiCoO 2 ), lithium manganate (LiMn 2 o 4 ) and lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO 4 ) dominated, in which LiFePO with olivine structure 4 , as one of the most promising cathode materials is receiving more and more attention, however, currently LiFePO 4 The synthesis method is relatively simple, such as LiFePO 4 The main manufacturers of battery cathode materials, Valence, A123 and Tianjin Strand in the United States, all use the traditional solid-phase method or the improved solid-phase method. The product cost of this method is relatively high, and the product batches are unstable. [0003] As a low-temperature and economical method for synthesizing nanomaterials, hydrothermal synthesi...
