Problems solved by technology

[0009] In the existing preparation technology of multi-component precursors, in order to realize the separation of multi-component precursors and impurity ions, a large amount of lye or pure water is used to repeatedly wash and filter the precursors, and the impurities are adsorbed on the surface of the precursors by the washing liquid. The anions and cations of the anions and cations are dissolved many times, but the adsorption performance of the hydroxide precursor is strong, and the washing process cannot completely remove the entrapped Na + and SO 4 2- Even if the auxiliary washing methods such as improved ultrasonic washing and centrifugal washing are used to effectively remove impurity ions, the content of impurity ions in the multi-component precursor can only be reduced by a certain percentage each time, and repeated washing is required, which is time-consuming and laborious. After multiple washings, the multi-element precursor and impurities cannot be effectively separated; moreover, the existing process uses a large amount of water and requires high purity of water, which is usually deionized water or pure water, which will produce a large amount of Waste liquid must be equipped with a complete waste liquid treatment system, which increases production costs, and incomplete waste liquid treatment will also cause adverse effects and damage to the environment, which is contrary to the concept of energy conservation and environmental protection under the current social and economic situation
[0010] Therefore, there is no effective solution in the prior art

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of cathode materials for lithium ion batteries, and in particular relates to a preparation method of a low-impurity multi-element precursor. Background technique [0002] Lithium-ion batteries have been widely used in portable electronic devices, large-scale energy storage power stations and electric vehicles because of their advantages such as high working voltage, long cycle life, no memory effect, small self-discharge effect, and environmental friendliness. At present, lithium cobalt oxide, the traditional commercial lithium-ion battery cathode material, is not mature enough to meet the needs of lithium-ion batteries with higher specific energy and high power density in the future because of the high price of cobalt as a strategic resource and the need to match high-voltage electrolytes. requirements for battery development. Now, multi-component materials have become an important development direction be...
