Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application relates to the technical field of sodium ion battery electrode materials, and particularly relates to a preparation method of a sodium iron phosphate pyrophosphate material. BACKGROUND

[0002] In recent years, the price of lithium carbonate is high, and the price of sodium carbonate is only one one-hundredth to one fiftieth of that of lithium carbonate. Therefore, sodium ion batteries are gradually favored by people due to the huge cost advantage. The positive electrode material of the sodium ion battery mainly includes three types: ternary sodium battery material, prussian material and polyanion material. The ternary sodium battery material has the advantages of high compaction density and high capacity, but the cost is relatively high due to the high cost of nickel, cobalt and manganese elements. The prussian material is cyanide, which will produce toxic gas when the battery is in thermal runaway. The polyanion material does not have the above two defects, and has the advantages of safety, non-toxicity and low cost. Among the polyanion materials, the synthesized sodium iron phosphate material is often a mineral phase and does not have electrochemical activity. Therefore, the sodium iron phosphate pyrophosphate material has attracted great attention and has become a popular positive electrode material of the sodium ion battery.

[0003] CN 117923452 A discloses a method for large-scale preparation of a composite sodium iron phosphate pyrophosphate material, which comprises the following steps: S1, first preparing a doped H y Fe (3-X) M X (PO4)4 precursor by a multi-element co-precipitation method, wherein M is one or a combination of multiple of Cr, Mn, Mg, Cu, Ni, Zn, V and Ti, H is a hydrogen ion, X is in the range of 0-1.5, and y is in the range of 0-3; S2, then adding a sodium source and a carbon source into the doped H y Fe (3-X) M X (PO4)4 precursor, uniformly mixing and then performing sintering to synthesize the composite sodium iron phosphate pyrophosphate material. The technical scheme has the defects that the iron in the prepared sodium iron phosphate pyrophosphate is divalent, and in the industrial production, ferrous sulfate is easily oxidized to cause the prepared product to be impure. Therefore, hydrogen peroxide or ascorbic acid needs to be additionally used as an antioxidant in the preparation process. Meanwhile, the prepared sodium iron phosphate pyrophosphate has a low discharge capacity of about 110 mAh / g.

[0004] CN 117902559 A proposes a preparation method of a fast-charging type sodium iron phosphate pyrophosphate positive electrode material to avoid the presence of other iron-based material impurities during the preparation of the sodium iron phosphate pyrophosphate material, thereby affecting the electrochemical performance of the material, the specific steps being: mixing iron phosphate, sodium dihydrogen phosphate and sodium carbonate according to the molar ratio of Na:Fe:P=4.2:3:4, adding glucose, the mass of the glucose accounting for 10% of the total mass of the iron phosphate, sodium dihydrogen phosphate, sodium carbonate and glucose, adding 200 mL of water, stirring, transferring to a sand mill for sand milling, the sand milling speed being 2000 rpm, the sand milling time being 1 h, obtaining a mixed slurry (D50 being less than 300 nm), the concentration of sodium dihydrogen phosphate in the mixed slurry being 0.25 g / mL; the mixed slurry is subjected to spray drying, the outlet temperature being controlled at 100℃, the flow rate being 35 mL / min, the obtained spherical precursor is transferred to a box furnace for first sintering, the first sintering procedure being that the temperature is raised from room temperature to 300℃ at a rate of 5℃ / min and sintered for 6 h, then second sintering is performed, the second sintering procedure being that the temperature is raised from 300℃ to 500℃ at a rate of 3℃ / min and sintered for 12 h, the obtained material is subjected to airflow crushing to obtain a sodium phosphate pyrophosphate positive electrode material Na4Fe3(PO4)2P2O7@4wt% Na2FeP2O7 with D50 being less than 5 μm. The technical solution has the disadvantage that the discharge capacity of the finally prepared sodium phosphate pyrophosphate positive electrode material is low, the initial discharge capacity in the voltage range of 0.2 C, 1.5 V-4.0 V being only 108 mAh / g.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, but not all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all the other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without any creative effort should belong to the protection scope of the present application.

[0027] A sodium iron pyrophosphate material, chemical formula is Na4Fe m Mg x Ti y V z (PO4)2P2O7, wherein m+x+y+z=3, m=2.70~2.97, x=0.01~0.10, y=0.01~0.10, z=0.01~0.10. The preparation method of the sodium iron pyrophosphate material comprises the following steps: S1, mixing a ferric sulfate solution with a phosphorus salt solution to obtain a precipitate at room temperature; S2, the precipitate is collected, water is added to make a slurry, and then added to a reaction kettle, phosphoric acid, sodium phosphate, a soluble magnesium source, a soluble titanium source and a soluble vanadium source are added, and reacted at 85-95 DEG C, after the material turns white, continue to react for 4-10 hours; S3, the reaction product is filtered, washed, flash evaporated, crushed, and dried, then sintered, first heated from room temperature to 800 DEG C, then sintered at 800 DEG C for 1-2 hours, finally cooled from 800 DEG C to 200 DEG C and discharged, to obtain a ferric phosphate pyrophosphate precursor; S4, the ferric phosphate pyrophosphate precursor is crushed, then a powder sodium source and a powder carbon source are added and crushed, to obtain a dry powder with a particle size of 200-500 nm; S5, the crushed dry powder is sintered, first heated from room temperature to 850 DEG C, then sintered at 850 DEG C for 12-18 hours, and finally cooled from 850 DEG C to room temperature and discharged, to obtain a ferric phosphate pyrophosphate sodium material.

[0028] As a preferred embodiment of the present application, in step S1, the preparation method of the ferric sulfate solution is as follows: Iron sesquioxide is added to a sulfuric acid solution, and the solution is stirred to form a ferric sulfate solution.

[0029] The ferric sulfate solution is prepared by reacting iron sesquioxide with a sulfuric acid solution, the raw materials are widely available and relatively low in cost, and provide a relatively pure and stable iron source for subsequent preparation of ferric phosphate precipitate, which is conducive to ensuring the stability of the entire preparation process and the consistency of the product.

[0030] As a preferred embodiment of the present application, in step S1, the phosphorus salt solution is a solution containing at least one of monoammonium phosphate, diammonium phosphate, and triammonium phosphate.

[0031] These phosphorus salts can stably provide phosphate ions in solution, and their chemical properties are relatively stable, and can generate ferric phosphate precipitate relatively fully when reacting with the ferric sulfate solution. Moreover, these phosphorus salts are common chemical raw materials, which are easily available on the market and relatively low in price, which is conducive to reducing the preparation cost.

[0032] As a preferred embodiment of the present application, in step S1, the phosphorus salt solution is added to the ferric sulfate solution, and mixed by stirring, the stirring speed is controlled to be 50-150 rpm, and the addition time of the phosphorus salt solution is 7-10 hours.

[0033] The phosphorus salt solution and the iron sulfate solution can be fully mixed at the stirring speed of 50 rpm to 150 rpm, so that the reaction can be uniformly carried out, and local overfast or overslow reaction can be avoided to cause uneven particle size of the precipitate. The long addition time of the phosphorus salt solution can make the reaction more sufficient, and is beneficial to generating a more pure and better crystallinity iron phosphate precipitate, thereby laying a foundation for preparing high-quality sodium iron phosphate pyrophosphate material.

[0034] As a preferred embodiment of the present application, in step S2, the precipitate obtained in step S1 is first filtered and washed.

[0035] The filtering and washing treatment is to remove unreacted impurities, other ions in the solution, and impurity ions attached to the surface of the precipitate, so that the precipitate is more pure. The pure precipitate can reduce the interference of impurities in the subsequent reaction, improve the purity of the product, and thus improve the performance of the sodium iron phosphate pyrophosphate material.

[0036] As a preferred embodiment of the present application, in step S2, the sodium phosphate salt is at least one of monosodium phosphate, disodium phosphate, and trisodium phosphate.

[0037] These sodium phosphate salts are common inorganic salts, and the production process is mature, the market supply is sufficient, and they are easy to purchase and have low cost, which is conducive to controlling the preparation cost.

[0038] As a preferred embodiment of the present application, in step S2, the soluble magnesium source is at least one of magnesium sulfate, magnesium chloride, and magnesium nitrate.

[0039] These magnesium salts are common in the chemical raw material market, widely sourced, easy to obtain, and relatively low in price, which can reduce the production cost while ensuring the product performance.

[0040] As a preferred embodiment of the present application, in step S2, the soluble titanium source is at least one of titanyl sulfate, titanium trichloride, titanium tetrachloride, and titanium tetraiodide.

[0041] These soluble titanium salts have a relatively mature production and supply system in the chemical industry, and can be obtained through a regular channel and meet the demand for titanium source in the preparation process within a reasonable cost range.

[0042] As a preferred embodiment of the present application, in step S2, the soluble vanadium source is at least one of vanadyl sulfate, sodium metavanadate, and sodium orthovanadate.

[0043] These vanadium compounds are common vanadium salts, which are stably supplied on the market, relatively easy to obtain, and within an acceptable cost range, which is helpful to realize the economy of the preparation process.

[0045] Preparing the precursor according to the above ratio can make the components in the reaction system react fully, and the appropriate amount of magnesium, titanium and vanadium elements can play a role in doping modification, and ultimately obtain sodium iron pyrophosphate material with the target chemical composition and structure.

[0046] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, in step S2, the molar ratio of phosphoric acid to sodium phosphate is 1:0.1-0.2.

[0047] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, in step S2, during the reaction process, the stirring speed of the reactor is controlled to be 50 rpm to 150 rpm.

[0048] At a stirring speed of 50 rpm~150 rpm, the components in the reaction system can be fully mixed, which is conducive to sufficient contact and reaction between the reactants, and thus conducive to the generation of products with uniform structure and stable performance, avoiding inconsistent product performance due to local reaction differences, thereby improving the quality stability of sodium ferric pyrophosphate materials.

[0049] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, in step S3, the washing target is that the conductivity of the washing water is less than 500 us / cm.

[0050] Controlling the conductivity of the wash water to less than 500 us / cm can ensure that the impurity ions on the surface of the reaction product are fully removed. The high-purity reaction product can better form an ideal crystal structure in subsequent sintering and other processes, which is beneficial to improving the electrochemical properties of the sodium iron pyrophosphate material.

[0051] As a preferred specific embodiment of the present invention, in step S3, the flash evaporation, crushing, and drying processes are performed using a flash evaporation, crushing, and drying integrated machine.

The moisture content of the material after drying is 15% to 19%.

[0052] The flash evaporation, crushing and drying are integrated by using the flash evaporation crushing drying all-in-one machine, so that the process flow is simplified and the production efficiency is improved. By reasonably setting the parameters such as the inlet air temperature, the crushing disc frequency, the outlet air temperature and the grading wheel frequency, the material is fully crushed and uniformly dried, the moisture content of the material after drying is controlled in a suitable range, which is beneficial to guarantee the physical properties and chemical properties of the material, and provides good raw material conditions for subsequent sintering.

[0053] As a preferred embodiment of the present application, in step S4, the powder sodium source is selected from at least one of sodium carbonate, sodium bicarbonate, monosodium phosphate, disodium phosphate and trisodium phosphate.

[0054] As a preferred embodiment of the present application, in step S4, the molar ratio of sodium in the powder sodium source, carbon in the powder carbon source and iron in the iron pyrophosphate precursor is 4:0.03-0.06:3.

[0055] As a preferred embodiment of the present application, in step S4, the powder carbon source is selected from at least one of fructose, sucrose and glucose. These sugars are common carbohydrates in daily life, with abundant sources, easy to obtain, and relatively low price, so it is convenient and economical to use them as carbon sources, which is beneficial to reduce the preparation cost. At the same time, the powder carbon source can form a carbon coating layer at high temperature, which can improve the electrical conductivity of the material, reduce the side reaction between the material and the electrolyte, and also enhance the structural stability of the material, which is beneficial to improve the electrochemical performance of the sodium iron phosphate material.
