The invention relates to a high-density spherical
ferric phosphate and a preparation method thereof, and preparation materials are mainly used for preparing
ferrous phosphate lithium which is the
anode material of a
lithium ion battery. The preparation method takes an
iron source and an additive as raw materials, and the raw materials are dissolved by vaal water to be made into a
mixed solution A; the preparation method takes
phosphate and a neutralizing agent as raw materials, and the raw materials are dissolved by the vaal water to be made into a
mixed solution B. The solution A and the solution B are mixed and reacted, preparation materials are washed and parched, and the high-density spherical
ferric phosphate the average grain
diameter of which is 1.5-5micron, the tap density is not less than 0.95g / cm<3>, the grains are dispersed and the sizes are symmetrical is obtained. The
ferrous phosphate
lithium prepared by the high-density spherical
ferric phosphate has
perfect crystal structure,
lithium ion intercalation / de-intercalation channel is normal, and the
discharge capacity can reach 140mAh / g under the condition of 1C. The preparation method has simple process and is easy to technologize, and the
ferrous phosphate lithium synthetized by the ferric phosphate has good
crystallinity and
crystal structure and can increase the electrochemical properties of the ferrous phosphate lithium.
