Description

A kind of hydrothermal synthesis method of nano-grade lithium iron phosphate
Technical field
The invention belongs to technical field of energy material preparation.In particular to the iron lithium phosphate with water heat transfer with nanostructure, this material can be used as anode material for lithium-ion batteries.
Technical background
The security that iron lithium phosphate has because of it, inexpensive property, environment friendly and receive very big concern.In recent years because this shortcoming of low electroconductibility of material is progressively modified, be that the battery of positive pole is just in popularization and application with iron lithium phosphate.But its high these performance index of charge and discharge high rate performance comparatively actual requirement still have certain gap.Reduce particle diameter and carbon coated be the most effective two kinds of methods.In reduction particle diameter, the particle diameter of material can be prepared into nano level, nano level level compound has been proved to be and it can have been made to reach be bordering on its theoretical capacity, we use water heat transfer iron lithium phosphate in ZL200710058353.7, and illustrate in ZL200710058352.2 and control granular size with tensio-active agent, prevent the method for reuniting between particle, and illustrate pH value to the impact of synthesizing iron lithium phosphate pattern at ZL202010031395.3 and obtain the optimal ph of its synthesis.Compared with solid phase method, Hydrothermal Synthesis have simple to operate, thing mutually evenly, advantage that particle diameter is little.The step mainly taked that current existing hydrothermal method prepares iron lithium phosphate is dissolved by a certain percentage soluble ferrite, phosphoric acid and lithium hydroxide, be warming up to 120 ~ 374 DEG C (critical temperatures of water) after mixing in reactor, all iron lithium phosphate crystal can be obtained in a wider temperature range, but the pattern of crystal is different with granular size, in general the particle of the crystal of the higher preparation of temperature of reaction is less, and chemical property is more excellent.In order to obtain tiny lithium iron phosphate particles, higher temperature of reaction need be adopted and be aided with tensio-active agent, organic solvent to reach the object of micronized particles, the shortcoming existed is reacted at relatively high temperatures, the autogenous pressure of reaction system is larger, bring that facility investment is large thus, operation control difficult and because of the pressure of reactor large, corresponding with it, the wall thickness of reactor will be thicker, cause heat transfer efficiency low, make process energy consumption large, the existence of tensio-active agent produces the problems such as a large amount of foam makes mother liquid evaporation process control difficult.

The chemical property of table 1 product
As can be seen from above data and SEM figure, the pattern of heat-up rate remarkably influenced crystal and chemical property.Thus the dissolution rate that heat-up rate affects presoma affects the degree of saturation of lithium in reaction system, iron, phosphate anion, affects the growth conditions of iron lithium phosphate crystal thus and finally affects the selecting to growth characteristics of crystal.Heat-up rate is lower, and the precursor Trilithium phosphate of reaction and eight water ferrous phosphate dissolution raties are slow, and in system, the degree of supersaturation of configurational ion is low, is deposited on the high crystal face of energy and the crystal face that makes energy low reveals ion selectivity.The crystal of the large grain size as comparative example 2 and less crystal face is caused to generate.When heat-up rate is greater than 4 DEG C, the time of reaction system residing for low-temperature zone is shorter, precursor dissolves rapidly at relatively high temperatures, in system, the degree of supersaturation of various ion is large, configurational ion must precipitate rapidly the free energy that could reduce system, therefore, heat up and low-temperature growth phase relative to low speed, crystal growth select to trend replace by rapid growth of crystal, a large amount of nucleus grows fast, the particle of final product is tiny, and sphericity is high, is conducive to the raising of electrode compacted density and the performance of electrochemistry capacitance.But too fast heat-up rate is except the difficulty of the operation strengthened, the pattern of product and chemical property are not effectively improved.Direct steam heating is utilized to control the method for heat-up rate, simply, effectively can controlling the growth of iron lithium phosphate crystal, the problem of the mother liquid disposal difficulty produced because using tensio-active agent or make organic solvent go to control crystal morphology in reaction system can being avoided.Under optimal conditions of the present invention, LiFePO 4 material shows splendid chemical property.Therefore, adopting the art of this patent scheme, is that under most economical condition, (as far as possible low temperature of reaction) prepares the technical scheme of nano-grade lithium iron phosphate by most economical means (control heat-up rate).
Unaccomplished matter of the present invention is known technology.
