The invention relates to a synthesis method of
lithium difluorophosphate, belonging to the technical field of
lithium battery electrolyte. The synthesis method is characterized by comprising the following steps: respectively adding P2O5,
lithium-containing inorganic salt and dried
organic solvent into a closed reaction kettle at normal temperature, airtightly stirring and cooling to -50DEG C to 30DEG C, displacing the
atmosphere in the kettle three times with dried
inert gas, increasing the temperature to 95DEG C-105DEG C after the content of
moisture in the kettle is less than 1ppm, boosting pressure to 0.7MPa-0.85MPa; then introducing POF3, reacting for 5-15 hours under stirring, wherein the
reaction temperature and pressure are respectively at 60DEG C to 180DEG C, and 0.5MPa to 2.5MPa, and the
molar ratio of POF3 to P2O5 to lithium-containing inorganic salt is 1 to (0-1.5) to (1-5); and then filtering to obtain a filtrate, removing
solvent, and recrystallizing
solid to obtain
crystal. The synthesis method has mild conditions, no side reactions appear, the technology process is simple, the product is easily separated and extracted, the
moisture and free
chlorine values are low, and the purity of the prepared product is high.
