Problems solved by technology

The powder performance is good, the capacity can reach 140mAh / g, but the particle size of the powder is uncontrollable and the distribution size is uneven, and the effect of surface modification (carbon composite, carbon encapsulation) is not ideal, making its performance unstable
Another example is that the patent of Publication No. CN1821062A discloses a method in which the precursor of lithium ferrous phosphate is obtained by solution evaporation with ferric phosphate, lithium acetate and reducing agent, and lithium ferrous phosphate is obtained through high-temperature heat treatment, and then mixed with glucose solution, Carbon-doped lithium iron phosphate is obtained by high-temperature calcination, the preparation process is complicated, the product yield is low, and the product particles are too large, the surface modification layer is uneven, and the battery performance is not ideal
In summary, the common problems in the current production of lithium iron phosphate are: cumbersome process, in-depth research on carbon-doped precursor materials, poor batch uniformity of products, small tap density, uneven surface modification, etc.
As a chemical raw material widely used in food, chemical, textile, building materials and other industries, starch has a wide variety, and can be subdivided and adjusted according to different needs. For the preparation of micro-nano inorganic materials, especially battery-grade lithium iron phosphate preparation, there is no research report
Among them, natural native starch has high viscosity, but its water solubility is extremely poor; cross-linked starch can significantly increase the viscosity and paste viscosity of native starch, but its water solubility is still not good; oxidized starch has good water solubility, but its viscosity Worse than native starch; hydroxyalkyl starch has good water solubility, high viscosity, and relatively high gelatinization temperature, but the price is higher

Abstract

The present invention discloses a production method for ferric phosphate nanometer powder with a characteristic of controllable particle size. In the prior art, battery grade ferric phosphate production processes commonly have disadvantages of large size, impure phase, complex process, high production cost and the like, and especially the phase carries a certain proportion of crystal water so as to directly cause instable phase, instable performances and the like of the lithium iron phosphate powder synthesized at the late stage. The synthesis process comprises: preparing a phosphate organic/pure water mixing base solution in a certain pH range, adding a plurality of additives, adding an iron salt solution at a constant temperature in a stepwise manner, adjusting the pH value of the solution during the adding process with a dropwise manner, carrying out constant temperature stirring for a certain time, carrying out suction filtration, washing and drying on the obtained product, and finally carrying out annealing for a certain time at a temperature of 300-600 DEG C to obtain the ferric phosphate nanometer powder. The ferric phosphate nanometer powder produced by the method has characteristics of controllable particle size, controllable components, simple process, low cost, high powder activity, easy production enlargement and high market competitiveness.
