Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of new energy, and particularly relates to an iron-based phosphate positive electrode material and a preparation method and application thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] Sodium-ion batteries have attracted extensive attention in recent years due to their abundant resources, low cost and wide application prospects. In the research of key positive electrode materials for sodium-ion batteries, improving the energy density, cycle stability and rate performance is the current main research direction. Common positive electrode materials include polyanion compounds, layered oxides and prussian blue compounds. Among them, although the layered oxides have a high specific capacity, their cycle stability is poor; the prussian blue analogues are easy to introduce crystal water in the synthesis process, resulting in unstable structure and affecting the cycle performance. In comparison, the polyanion compounds become an ideal choice for the positive electrode materials of sodium-ion batteries due to their stable crystal structure and efficient sodium ion transmission channel.

[0003] Among the polyanion compounds, phosphate positive electrode materials have attracted much attention due to their good balance between low cost and high capacity. Typical materials include vanadium-based compounds (Na3V2(PO4)3, Na3V2(PO4)2F3), manganese-based compounds Na3MnTi(PO4)3, and iron-based compounds (NaFePO4, Na4Fe3(PO4)2P2O7). Among them, sodium iron pyrophosphate is considered as a promising large-scale energy storage system positive electrode material due to its high theoretical specific capacity, low raw material cost, simple synthesis process and excellent cycle performance. However, the synthesis process is easy to produce electrochemically inert sodium iron phosphate, and the existence of this impurity will significantly reduce the electrochemical performance of the material. In addition, the existing preparation method usually relies on expensive grinding equipment, and needs a long time to work to reduce the crystallinity and particle size of the material, resulting in large equipment investment, high energy consumption and long process flow, which is not conducive to large-scale production.

[0004] Therefore, developing a preparation process of high-purity sodium iron pyrophosphate and exploring an efficient and low-cost synthesis method has become the focus of current research. This not only helps to improve the electrochemical performance of the material, but also promotes the commercial application of sodium-ion batteries in the field of large-scale energy storage.

[0005] Currently, the iron-based phosphate cathode material of sodium-ion battery usually uses iron salts such as ferric nitrate, ferric phosphate, etc. as raw materials. In the prior art, CN118867197A discloses a method for preparing sodium pyrophosphate ferric phosphate cathode material by using ferrous phosphate, ferric phosphate, ferric nitrate, ferrous oxalate or ferrous carbonate as iron source; CN119008875A discloses a method for preparing sodium ferric phosphate cathode material by using at least two of ferric nitrate, ferric sulfate, ferric acetate, ferric chloride, ferric citrate, ferric tartrate and ferric tribromide as iron source. However, these methods have many limitations in practical application: compared with the most common ferric phosphate route in industrialization, first of all, the iron salt needs to be reacted with phosphoric acid to obtain anhydrous ferric phosphate through steps such as precipitation, neutralization of pH value and drying, and since the ferric phosphate needs to be treated by aging and high-temperature annealing dehydration, the crystallinity is high, the energy barrier for conversion to sodium pyrophosphate ferric phosphate phase is high, and impurities are easily produced, which is not conducive to the efficient synthesis of the material. When ferric nitrate is used as the iron source, nitrogen oxides will be produced during the preparation process, which will cause harm to human health and environmental safety; in addition, the production cost of ferrous oxalate and ferrous phosphate is high, which is difficult to meet the needs of industrialization; although the cost of iron oxide is low, its purity is low and it often contains impurities, which makes it difficult to control the consistency of the product. SUMMARY

[0006] To solve all or part of the above technical problems, the present application proposes an innovative "solid-liquid integrated" preparation method. This method directly enters the next step by generating a solid-liquid mixture, without the need to pre-prepare anhydrous ferric phosphate, thereby significantly shortening the production cycle. In addition, this method has the advantages of short reaction process, small product particle size and low hardness, reducing the difficulty of subsequent processing. At the same time, since a solid-liquid mixture is formed, the crystallinity is low and the activity is high, making it easier to obtain high-performance target materials.
