The manufacture method of LiMn2O4 of the present invention comprises: in the inactive gas atmosphere below oxygen concentration is 1 volume %, fire non-alkaline carbonic acid manganese with 500~800 ℃, obtain first operation of MnO; In the atmosphere more than oxygen concentration is 10 volume %, fire with 525~950 ℃ and to carry out the MnO that this first operation obtains, obtain Mn 2O 3Second operation; Be that 0.90~1.05 mode is mixed and carried out the Mn that this second operation obtains with lithium atom with respect to the mol ratio (Li/Mn) of manganese atom 2O 3With lithium compound, obtain reacting material mixture, then in the inactive gas atmosphere below oxygen concentration is 1 volume %, fire this reacting material mixture with 600~950 ℃, obtain the 3rd operation of LiMn2O4.
First operation is to fire non-alkaline carbonic acid manganese, obtains the operation of MnO.
The so-called non-alkaline carbonic acid manganese that first operation relates to refers to adding 10g manganese carbonate in the 100g ultra-pure water, is 6.0~7.8 at the pH of the water of 25 ℃ of stirrings after 5 minutes, is preferably 6.5~7.6 manganese carbonate.Therefore, the non-alkaline carbonic acid manganese that relates to of first operation is different from the manganese carbonate that is commonly referred to as alkaline carbonic acid manganese.Under the situation of alkaline carbonic acid manganese, in the 100g ultra-pure water, add 10g alkaline carbonic acid manganese, be more than 8.0 at the pH of the water of 25 ℃ of stirrings after 5 minutes.
Non-alkaline carbonic acid manganese, modulate ammonium carbamate solution in industrial employing by ammoniacal liquor and carbon dioxide, make the method that manganese monoxide reacts therein and make the method that manganous salts such as the manganese sulfate that is dissolved in the water, manganese chloride and carbonic hydroammonium as the carbonic acid source reacts and make the manganous hydroxide of non-alkaline carbonic acid manganese (Mn (OH) 2) content few.Therefore, adding the non-alkaline carbonic acid manganese of 10g in the 100g ultra-pure water, is 6.0~7.8 at the pH of the water of 25 ℃ of stirrings after 5 minutes, preferably becomes 6.5~7.6.
On the other hand, alkaline carbonic acid manganese makes the method that manganous salts such as the manganese sulfate that is dissolved in the water, manganese chloride and sodium carbonate as the carbonic acid source reacts and makes the manganous hydroxide of alkaline carbonic acid manganese (Mn (OH) in industrial employing 2) content many.Therefore, adding 10g alkaline carbonic acid manganese in the 100g ultra-pure water, is more than 8.0 at the pH of the water of 25 ℃ of stirrings after 5 minutes.
Other each rerum natura of the non-alkaline carbonic acid manganese that first operation relates to etc. has no particular limits, the average grain diameter that is easy to get calmly is to set out in the aspect of the LiMn2O4 of 1~25 μ m, the average grain diameter of the non-alkaline carbonic acid manganese that first operation relates to is preferably 1~30 μ m, is preferably 5~20 μ m especially.
In first operation, in the inactive gas atmosphere below oxygen concentration is 1 volume %, preferably in being the inactive gas atmosphere of 0~0.5 volume %, oxygen concentration carries out firing of non-alkaline carbonic acid manganese.By in above-mentioned atmosphere, carrying out firing of non-alkaline carbonic acid manganese, can access fine and close MnO.On the other hand, if oxygen concentration, then can not obtain fine and close MnO greater than 1 volume %.As the inactive gas that first operation relates to, can enumerate nitrogen, helium, argon gas etc.In addition, in first operation, when carrying out the firing of non-alkaline carbonic acid manganese, the oxidation for anti-block causes can contain reducing gass such as hydrogen on a small quantity in atmosphere.
In first operation, the firing temperature of non-alkaline carbonic acid manganese is 500~800 ℃, is preferably 550~700 ℃.If 500 ℃ of the firing temperature deficiencies of non-alkaline carbonic acid manganese then can not obtain MnO, and if surpass 800 ℃, aggegation grow then, the fillibility of LiMn2O4 descends.
In first operation, the firing time of non-alkaline carbonic acid manganese has no particular limits, and is preferably 1~20 hour, is preferably 5~15 hours especially.If the firing time deficiency of non-alkaline carbonic acid manganese 1 hour is then insufficient easily to the conversion of MnO, on the other hand,, on the quality of MnO, can not see big difference even carry out firing more than 20 hours, therefore inefficent easily.
The MnO that carries out first operation and obtain, the MnO that obtains than firing other manganese salt and fire condition and the MnO that obtains with other, impurity content is few.
Second operation is to fire to carry out the MnO that first operation obtains, and obtains Mn 2O 3Operation.
In second operation, in the atmosphere more than oxygen concentration is 10 volume %, preferably in the atmosphere more than oxygen concentration is 15 volume %, be to fire carrying out the MnO that first operation obtains in the atmosphere more than the 20 volume % particularly preferably in oxygen concentration.By in above-mentioned atmosphere, firing, can access the few Mn of impurity to carrying out the MnO that first operation obtains 2O 3On the other hand, if oxygen concentration less than 10%, then owing to hypoxgia, so MnO is to Mn 2O 3Conversion insufficient, generate impurity easily.Usually, firing preferably of carrying out that MnO that first operation obtains carries out carried out in atmosphere or in the oxygen atmosphere.
In second operation, be 525~950 ℃ to carrying out the temperature that MnO that first operation obtains fires, be preferably 550~750 ℃.If to carrying out 525 ℃ of the temperature less thaies that MnO that first operation obtains fires, then in MnO to Mn 2O 3Conversion become insufficient, therefore, the discharge capacity of LiMn2O4 as the lithium secondary battery of anodal secondary active material descended, and if surpass 950 ℃, then take place by Mn 2O 3To Mn 3O 4Conversion, therefore the result can only obtain the low LiMn2O4 of Li supply capacity, as the performance step-down of anodal secondary active material.In addition, if to carrying out temperature that MnO that first operation obtains fires above 750 ℃, then LiMn2O4 is being used as in the lithium secondary battery of anodal secondary active material, the voltage (charging voltage) that Li breaks away from has the tendency that uprises, therefore, be preferably 550~750 ℃ to carrying out the temperature that MnO that first operation obtains fires.
In second operation, have no particular limits carrying out the time that MnO that first operation obtains fires, be preferably 1~20 hour, be preferably 5~15 hours especially.If to carrying out the time less than 1 hour that MnO that first operation obtains fires, then to Mn 2O 3Conversion insufficient easily, on the other hand,, on the quality of MnO, can not see big difference even carry out firing more than 20 hours, therefore inefficent easily.
The 3rd operation is to fire to carry out the Mn that second operation obtains 2O 3The reacting material mixture that mixes with lithium compound and obtain obtains the operation of LiMn2O4.
In the 3rd operation, at first mix and carry out the Mn that second operation obtains 2O 3With lithium compound.
As the lithium compound that the 3rd operation relates to, for example, can enumerate lithium carbonate, lithium hydroxide, lithium nitrate etc., lithium compound can be independent a kind or make up more than 2 kinds.In the lithium compound that the 3rd operation relates to, lithium carbonate does not have hygroscopy, and byproduct of reaction does not produce moisture, and the dispersion liquid pH value when disperseing LiMn2O4 in water diminishes, thereby preferably.Rerum natura of the lithium compound that the 3rd operation is related to etc. without limits, from carrying out the aspect of the mixing of reacting material mixture equably, the average grain diameter of the lithium compound that the 3rd operation relates to is preferably below the 20 μ m, is preferably 3~10 μ m especially.
Carry out the Mn that second operation obtains 2O 3The mixed proportion of the lithium compound that relates to the 3rd operation, the Li atom in the lithium compound that relates to the 3rd operation is with respect to carrying out the Mn that second operation obtains 2O 3In mol ratio (Li/Mn) meter of Mn atom, be 0.90~1.05, and from accessing the big LiMn2O4 aspect of Li supply capacity, both mixed proportions are preferably 0.95~1.01.On the other hand, carry out the Mn that second operation obtains 2O 3If the mixed proportion less than 0.90 of the lithium compound that relates to the 3rd operation, then unreacted Mn 2O 3Residual and become the reason of Mn stripping, perhaps the Li supply capacity of LiMn2O4 diminishes, and if surpass 1.05, then generate the LiMn2O4 that contains more Li, the pH of the dispersion liquid when therefore disperseing in water uprises, and becomes the reason that battery securities such as producing gas descends.
To carrying out the Mn that second operation obtains 2O 3Mixed method when mixing with lithium compound can be any method of dry type or wet type, and the aspect from easy to manufacture is preferably dry type.Under the situation that dry type is mixed, preferred use can be with the mixed uniformly blender of reacting material mixture etc.
Then, the Mn that second operation obtains is carried out in mixing 2O 3And lithium compound, obtain reacting material mixture.
