Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain simply and efficiently high purity lithium carbonate suitable for use as a material for the optical industry by converting a crude lithium compound into lithium perchlorate, recrystallizing the lithium perchlorate, and reacting it with carbon dioxide in the presence of ammonia. CONSTITUTION:A crude lithium compound such as industrial lithium carbonate, industrial lithium hydroxide or industrial lithium oxide is dissolved in an aqueous soln. of perchloric acid. The resulting soln. is concentrated or merely cooled to crystallize and separate lithium perchlorate. The lithium perchlorate is recrystallized using water or an org. solvent such as ethyl ether to obtain high purity lithium perchlorate. The high purity lithium perchlorate is dissolved in pure water, the resulting soln. is made basic by adding ammonia, and carbon dioxide is blown into the basic soln. and reacted to precipitate high purity lithium carbonate. The high purity lithium carbonate is taken out by filtration.

To explain the method for producing high-purity lithium carbonate using industrial lithium carbonate, commercially available industrial lithium carbonate usually contains 99 or more as lithium carbonate,
It also contains trace amounts of salts such as potassium, sodium, magnesium, iron, and calcium as impurities. To obtain high purity lithium carbonate from this crude lithium carbonate,
First, the kernels are dissolved in, for example, 601% perchloric acid to make lithium perchlorate. The solubility of lithium perchlorate in water is neither large nor deceptively small, so it is favorable/convenient for the purpose of recrystallization and purification, and general perchlorates are superior to alkaline earth metal salts. Due to its high solubility in water, it can be purified very conveniently. When an aqueous solution containing lithium perchlorate is cooled or concentrated and cooled, lithium perchlorate precipitates in the form of trihydrate as relatively large crystals that are easy to handle. If this is separated by tF, washed with water, and dehydrated, lithium perchlorate of considerably high purity can be obtained. ζ If the thus obtained lithium perchlorate is repeatedly recrystallized using pure water, a trihydrate of lithium perchlorate with even higher purity can be obtained. Also, unlike other metal perchlorates, lithium perchlorate has a uniquely high solubility in organic solvents, especially ether, so if purified trihydrate is added to ethyl ether, for example, lithium perchlorate will dissolve into ether. Moving on to the layers,
Other impurities can be left in the aqueous layer for separation and purification.

In order to obtain highly purified lithium carbonate, the thus purified lithium perchlorate is dissolved in pure water, ammonia is added to make it basic, and carbon dioxide is blown in to precipitate lithium carbonate. At this time, heating can facilitate the formation of a precipitate. The ammonia and carbon dioxide to be used need to be as highly purified as possible; ammonia is preferably gaseous, and carbon dioxide is also preferably gaseous. The obtained crystals are washed with water, dehydrated, and dried to obtain high purity lithium carbonate.
