Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to a separation device for phosphorus pentafluoride mixed gas, in particular to a separation device for phosphorus pentafluoride and hydrogen chloride. Background Art
[0002] Lithium hexafluorophosphate is a commonly used electrolyte material in liquid lithium-ion batteries. Most of the existing preparations of lithium hexafluorophosphate are achieved as follows. The first step is: phosphorus pentachloride reacts with anhydrous hydrogen fluoride at -20°C to generate an intermediate product, phosphorus pentafluoride and hydrogen chloride. Phosphorus pentafluoride forms a white solid, lithium hexafluorophosphate, with hydrogen chloride at -20°C. When the temperature rises above -10°C, lithium hexafluorophosphate decomposes into phosphorus pentafluoride and hydrogen fluoride again. The second step is: phosphorus pentafluoride reacts with lithium fluoride dissolved in anhydrous hydrogen fluoride to generate lithium hexafluorophosphate. In order to make the reaction sufficient, hydrogen fluoride is usually introduced in excess, which generates a large amount of mixed tail gas of hydrogen fluoride, phosphorus pentafluoride and hydrogen chloride. These mixed gases are toxic and harmful gases and need to be harmlessly treated before being discharged into the atmospheric environment, which not only wastes resources but also reduces economic benefits.
