The wet material finished product obtained in the step S4 of the embodiment 2 is calcined through the following procedures:
directly adding the wet material finished product into a roller kiln for three times of calcination, wherein the roller kiln comprises a temperature zone I, a temperature zone II and a temperature zone III, the temperature of the temperature zone I is 200, the temperature of the temperature zone II is 400, and the temperature of the temperature zone III is 730; the retention time of the sagger in the temperature zone I is 5h, the retention time of the sagger in the temperature zone II is 7h, and the retention time of the sagger in the temperature zone III is 4h, so that the aluminum-doped cobaltosic oxide is obtained; wherein, the sagger is from the temperature zone I to the temperature zone II and from the temperature zone II to the temperature zone III at the speed of 1.8m/min, and each sagger is filled with 6-10 kg of wet material finished products.
The aluminum-doped cobaltosic oxide prepared in comparative example 2 was examined to find that the tap density of the aluminum-doped cobaltosic oxide of comparative example 2 was 2.43g/cm 3 As can be seen from a photographed scanning electron microscope, the aluminum-doped tricobalt tetraoxide prepared by comparative example 2 has a poor sphericity and non-uniform particle size although it hardly has a cracking problem on the surface.
Comparative example 3
The wet material finished product obtained in the step S4 of the embodiment 2 is calcined through the following procedures:
directly adding the wet material finished product into a rotary kiln for three times of calcination, and firstly calcining for 5 hours under the condition of 200 finished products; then, at 400, calcining for 7 hours; finally, at 730, calcination is performed for 4 hours to obtain aluminum-doped cobaltosic oxide.
The aluminum-doped cobaltosic oxide prepared in comparative example 3 was examined to find that the tap density of the aluminum-doped cobaltosic oxide of comparative example 3 was 2.02g/cm 3 As can be seen from a scanning electron microscope used for shooting, the aluminum-doped cobaltosic oxide prepared in the comparative example 3 has good sphericity, uniform particle size and about 18 mu m particle size, but has a cracking phenomenon on the surface of part of spherical particles.
Comparative example 4
Comparative example 4 differs from example 2 only in S3, and all other steps are the same as in example 2.
S3 of comparative example 4 is:
s3, precipitating the slurry seed crystal prepared in the step S2 to obtain precipitated slurry; will be 1.5m 3 Heating the precipitation slurry to 40 ℃, adding 250L of ammonium bicarbonate solution prepared in the step S1, and stirring and mixing uniformly at a rotating speed of 800 rpm; then, simultaneously adding a cobalt-aluminum solution and a precipitator solution to continue the neutralization precipitation reaction, wherein the flow rate of the cobalt-aluminum solution is 250L/h, the flow rate of the ammonium bicarbonate solution is adjusted to be 200-300L/h, the pH of the reaction is controlled to be 7.3-7.5, the flow rate of the cobalt-aluminum solution is kept unchanged, and the reaction is carried out for 14h to obtain a slurry finished product;
the subsequent washing and calcination processes were exactly the same as in example 2.
The aluminum-doped cobaltosic oxide prepared in comparative example 4 was examined and found to have a tap density as high as 3.01g/cm 3 As can be seen from a scanning electron microscope used for shooting, the aluminum-doped cobaltosic oxide prepared in the comparative example 4 has a spherical structure with good sphericity, uniform particle size, but the particle size is about 10 mu m, and the surface of the particle has a severe cracking phenomenon.
As can be seen from the comparison of the comparative examples and examples, the large-particle-size aluminum-doped tricobalt tetraoxide with higher tap density, uniform particle size distribution, larger particle size (up to 18 μm), better sphericity and no cracking problem on the particle surface can be successfully prepared only by adopting the preparation method of the invention and controlling the reaction parameters within the range specified by the invention.
