Example 13
This example differs from example 1 only in that the nickel doping amount is 5%, and other conditions and parameters are exactly the same as those of example 1.
Example 14
This example differs from example 1 only in that the nickel doping amount is 0.5%, and other conditions and parameters are exactly the same as those of example 1.
Comparative example 1
This comparative example differs from example 1 only in that no nickel source was added, and other conditions and parameters were exactly the same as example 1.
Comparative example 2
This comparative example differs from example 1 only in that lithium bicarbonate was not added in step (2), and other conditions and parameters were exactly the same as in example 1. As a result, it was found that the system would collapse without adding lithium bicarbonate, since the total amount of lithium in the system could not be balanced, and the balance of acid and base could be achieved with lithium hydroxide and phosphoric acid, but the total amount of lithium could not meet the design requirements, and lithium bicarbonate needs to be added to balance the lithium amount ratio, and the lithium amount is insufficient or causes a significant decrease in capacity.
Performance test:
the positive electrode materials obtained in examples 1 to 14 and comparative examples 1 to 2 were used to prepare positive electrode sheets, lithium sheets were used as negative electrodes, and batteries were prepared, and the battery tests were conducted in the same mode as the lithium iron phosphate system, with a charge cut-off voltage of 4.3V, and the test results are shown in table 1:

Comparative example 2 / /
As can be seen from Table 1, the lithium iron manganese phosphate anode material prepared by the method disclosed by the invention can achieve a capacity of more than 141mAh/g at 0.1C and a capacity of more than 130.5mAh/g at 1C.
As can be seen from comparison of examples 1 and examples 4 to 5, the addition amount of the gluconic acid according to the present invention affects the performance of the positive electrode material, and if the addition amount of the gluconic acid is too large, the carbon content in the final-fired lithium manganese iron phosphate is too high, resulting in a decrease in capacity, and if the addition amount of the gluconic acid is too small, the carbon content in the final-fired lithium manganese iron phosphate is too low, resulting in a decrease in capacity.
As can be seen from the comparison of examples 1 and examples 6-9, the particle size and morphology of the final coprecipitated sample can be controlled by adjusting the amount of ethanol added, the reaction temperature and the rotational speed in the reaction stage of the present invention. The liquid which is continuously concentrated and discharged in the process is added with enough ethanol again and then is added into the system again, so that the proportion balance of water and ethanol in the reaction system is ensured.
As can be seen from the comparison between the embodiment 1 and the embodiments 10-12, the two-stage sintering temperature of the invention can affect the performance of the positive electrode material, and the positive electrode material with better appearance and stable performance can be prepared by controlling the two-stage sintering temperature.
As can be seen from a comparison of example 1 and examples 13 to 14, the doping amount of the dopant affects the performance of the resulting positive electrode material, and the present application can obtain a positive electrode material excellent in performance by controlling the doping amount of the dopant.
As can be seen from the comparison of example 1 and comparative example 1, doping with a small amount of dopant can significantly improve the performance of the positive electrode material.
By comparing the embodiment 1 with the comparative example 2, the invention ensures that the lithium content in the process and the final sample is slightly fluctuated within the range of the theoretical proportioning by adding lithium bicarbonate or lithium hydroxide, and the normal set lithium proportioning value can be realized by only a small amount of supplementary or non-supplementary lithium source in the subsequent sintering process, thereby facilitating the subsequent calcination directly.
The applicant declares that the above is only a specific embodiment of the present invention, but the scope of the present invention is not limited thereto, and it should be apparent to those skilled in the art that any changes or substitutions that are easily conceivable within the technical scope of the present invention disclosed by the present invention fall within the scope of the present invention and the disclosure.
