Description

A kind of preparation method of lithium iron phosphate positive material
Technical field
The invention belongs to the preparation method of anode material for lithium-ion batteries technical field, particularly a kind of lithium iron phosphate positive material.
Background technology
Since the phase at the end of the nineties in last century, olivine-type LiFePO 4The research of positive electrode material causes numerous investigators' concern.Iron lithium phosphate has high theoretical capacity (170mAh/g), high working voltage (voltage platform about 3.5V), suitable mass density (3.64g/cm3), self-discharge lampet advantage, LiFePO under low current density 4In Li +Almost can 100% embed/take off embedding, have extended cycle life, good cycle, memory-less effect, cheap, Heat stability is good, advantage such as environmentally friendly, be expected to become anode material for lithium-ion batteries of new generation.
The lithium ion battery quilt widely should be in making various electronicss, as notebook computer, lithium-base battery, digital camera, portable lighting equipment etc.Simultaneously, it also is used to power tool, electric bicycle and electromobile.Along with the consumption gradually of world petroleum resource, and the society requirement on environmental protection is improved gradually, power truck has obtained unprecedented opportunity to develop.As electric vehicle power sources, is the direction of power truck development with lithium ion battery.
In lithium ion battery, positive electrode material occupies important status, and this also is the emphasis of current lithium ion battery development.Traditional positive electrode material has: 1) cobalt acid lithium, its advantage are that energy height, good cycle, preparation are simple, technology maturation, Technological adaptability are good, and shortcoming is that price is too high, poor safety performance; 2) lithium manganate low price, but cycle performance and high-temperature behavior have much room for improvement./ 2nd materials that partly substitute cobalt with manganese and nickel are materials of acid energy of lithium manganate and cobalt and price compromise, and its cobalt contents can not fall very lowly, and the price of nickel is also very high, so its cost performance is undesirable.And the iron lithium phosphate cost is low, aboundresources, good cycle, is the ideal anode material for lithium-ion batteries.
Yet, LiFePO 4Positive electrode material also has very big defective, and its ion and electronic conductivity are not good, causes the charge-discharge magnification performance not good.This shortcoming has greatly influenced LiFePO 4Replace LiCoO 2Become anode material for lithium-ion batteries of new generation.LiFePO 4This defective of positive electrode material can overcome by the preparation ultra-fine grain; By increasing the material specific surface area, promote being in contact with one another or the coated with conductive charcoal between the particle, can improve LiFePO 4The conductivity of positive electrode material.
But new problem has thereupon appearred: along with the increase of specific surface area again, the amount that is coated with required caking agent and solvent also increases greatly, bring very big difficulty for the coating of pole piece, and after pole piece is prepared into electric core or battery, be easy to occur falling the material phenomenon.At present, LiFePO 4 material ubiquity coating difficult problem.
The J.B.Goodenough of U.S. Texas university in 1999 etc. discloses a kind of lithium battery anode LiFePO 4 material, and its current discharge is: 0.05mA/cm 2, capacity is 110mAh/g, and it reaches the theoretical capacity of 170mAh/g far away, and reason is: iron lithium phosphate electronics and ionic specific conductivity are low.Be head it off, people such as N.Ravet and M.Armand adopt that charcoal coats, metal-doped and phosphate potential alternate method improves the iron lithium phosphate specific conductivity greatly.The US2004/005265A1 of the Yet-Ming Chiang of Massachusetts Institute Technology in 2002 etc. application, its metal ion more than+2 of mixing in the lithium position to be increasing substantially electronic conductivity, thereby improved the multiplying power property of iron lithium phosphate.More than provide fundamental basis for the application in the power lithium-ion battery.
Sony company adopts Li 3PO and Fe 3(PO) 2-8H 20Be raw material, add amorphous carbon black or carbon precursor ball milling together, in preparing iron lithium phosphate below 6000 ℃.This method biggest advantage is to have only water to discharge in the tail gas, the productive rate height, and shortcoming is: need preparation ferrous phosphate presoma earlier, and if other elements that mix need to add in addition in proportion the balance that phosphoric acid could keep each element metering ratio.
Based on pyrocarbon thermal reduction synthetic technology, the cheap ferric iron sources such as ferric oxide of U.S. Valence Technology Inc. company, it is excessive to add weight ratio 100% when starting material mix, and is prepared iron lithium phosphate in ferric iron by the amorphous carbon black that carbon black is reduced to ferrous consumption.
Prior art generally adopts solid phase method or wet chemical method to prepare positive active material LiFePO 4, for example Chinese patent CN discloses a kind of iron lithium phosphate (LiFePO for 1401559A number 4) the preparation method, this method is the even back high-temperature calcination of lithium salts, ferrous salt and phosphoric acid salt ground and mixed, the calcining back that finishes adds the conductive agent ground and mixed and makes iron lithium phosphate.But when adopting solid phase method, various solids components are difficult to thorough mixing, therefore in the iron phosphate lithium positive pole active substance that obtains various compositions especially the conductive agent dispersion is inhomogeneous, directly influence the electroconductibility of positive active material.
