This invention provides a
titanium-doped
sodium iron pyrophosphate precursor, its preparation method, and a battery. The preparation method includes the following steps: introducing a mixed iron-
titanium metal source solution, a
phosphorus source solution, a
pyrophosphate source solution, an oxidant solution, and a pH adjuster into a base solution to perform a co-
precipitation reaction, thereby obtaining the
titanium-doped
sodium iron pyrophosphate precursor. The mixed iron-
titanium metal source solution includes an
iron source, a titanium source, a bimetallic complexing agent, and a titanium anchoring agent. The bimetallic complexing agent includes an
alkanolamine compound, and the titanium anchoring agent includes an organophosphonic acid compound. The preparation method of this invention introduces titanium during the co-
precipitation reaction, simultaneously adding specific
metal complexing agents and titanium anchoring agents to achieve uniform bulk phase
doping of titanium. This fundamentally regulates the
electronic structure of the material, improves its
electronic conductivity, and solves the problems of poor battery rate performance due to the poor
conductivity of
sodium iron pyrophosphate, as well as the problems existing in
solid-state synthesis.
