Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of chemical equipment technology, and in particular to a distillation reaction apparatus for preparing liquid bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide lithium. Background Technology

[0002] Lithium-ion battery electrolytes mainly consist of three parts: solvent, additives, and lithium salt. Regarding lithium salts, lithium hexafluorophosphate is currently the preferred choice due to its excellent conductivity, stability, and environmental friendliness. However, it still has drawbacks such as poor thermal stability, easy decomposition, the production of hydrogen fluoride (which affects battery performance at high temperatures), and easy crystallization at low temperatures.

[0003] The fluoride ions of LiFSI have strong electron-withdrawing properties, and the coordination between the cations and anions of lithium salts is weak and highly active. It has high stability and conductivity, and compared with lithium hexafluorophosphate, it has advantages such as high conductivity, low water sensitivity and good thermal stability.

[0004] LiFSI can be synthesized using either a three-step method or a two-step method (thioyl fluoride method), with the two-step method being the more common approach. The three-step synthesis process consists of three main steps: the synthesis of bis(chlorosulfonyl)imide (chlorination), fluorination, and lithiation, along with subsequent non-critical steps such as filtration and washing. The main raw materials include chlorosulfonic acid, thionyl chloride, aminosulfonic acid, chlorosulfonyl isocyanate (prepared from aminosulfonic acid and phosgene), and sulfur trichloride. The fluorination process typically uses fluoride salts and hydrofluoric acid (hydrogen fluoride). The two-step method (thioyl fluoride method) skips the chlorination process, directly yielding the fluorinated intermediate bis(chlorosulfonyl)imide (HFSI) from thioyl fluoride and lithium nitride. Currently, fewer companies use this method. The lithiation process generally uses alkaline lithium or lithium halides.

[0005] Distillation equipment is an indispensable part of the LiFSI production process. However, in actual use, the existing technology still has the problem that when there is no boiling during the heating process, the liquid will only evaporate on the surface, and the evaporation efficiency is limited by the surface area of ​​the liquid.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a distillation reaction apparatus for preparing liquid bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide lithium, the structure of which includes an evaporator body, a feed pipe, a steam output pipe, a temperature detector, a material output pipe, a constant temperature electric heater, a liquid pump, a liquid pump output pipe, an output plate, and a liquid output port.

The output end of the liquid pump is connected to the liquid pump output pipe, and the upper end of the liquid pump output pipe is connected to the output plate. Multiple liquid output ports are provided on the bottom surface of the output plate.

[0008] Furthermore, a control valve for controlling the flow of materials is installed on each of the feed pipe, steam output pipe, and material output pipe.

[0009] Furthermore, a level gauge for detecting the liquid level is installed inside the main body of the evaporator.

[0010] Furthermore, the evaporator body is equipped with a temperature monitoring device for detecting the liquid temperature.
