Technical field
The invention relates to a kind of preparation method of battery positive electrode active material, more particularly, is the preparation method about a kind of active material for anode of Li-ion secondary battery LiFePO 4.
Background technology
Lithium ion battery has been widely used in fields such as mobile communication, notebook computer, pick up camera, photographic camera, portable instrument as the high-energy-density chemical power source, also be the electromobile studied energetically of various countries, the first-selected supporting power supply of space power system, become the first-selection of the alternative energy.LiFePO 4It is the research focus of active substance of lithium ion battery anode.LiFePO 4Compare with other battery with positive active material as lithium ion battery and to have good electrochemical, charge and discharge platform is very steady, Stability Analysis of Structures in the charge and discharge process, and having nontoxic, pollution-free, advantage such as safety performance is good, can use under hot environment, starting material wide material sources, is the competitively focus of development research of current battery circle.But LiFePO 4Poor electric conductivity, compare with other active material for anode of Li-ion secondary battery, as cobalt acid lithium (5.1 grams per milliliter), lithium nickelate (4.8 grams per milliliter) and lithium manganate (4.3 grams per milliliter), the density of this material is lower, be 3.6 grams per milliliters, so this has limited the application of LiFePO 4 in practical lithium-ion greatly.
At present, in preparing the method for LiFePO 4, solid phase method technology is simple, and use equipment is realized easily, realizes the earliest in industrialization.Mainly comprising two kinds in the existing solid phase synthesis process, a kind ofly be---the divalence source of iron is as the preparation method of reaction raw materials; Another kind is---ferric iron source is as the preparation method of reaction raw materials.
CN1785799A discloses a kind of preparation method of solid phase synthesis LiFePO 4, the source of iron that this method adopts is a ferrous salt, as Ferrox, Iron diacetate, iron protochloride etc., this method comprises that be Li: Fe: P: TR=(1-x) with lithium salts, ferrous salt and phosphoric acid salt and transition element doped thing by atomic ratio: 1: 1: weighing charging of the mol ratio of x, add the mix grinding medium, 6-12 hour ball milling time, 40-70 ℃ of oven dry down, oven dry back powder heats 400-550 ℃ under inert atmosphere or reducing atmosphere, be incubated 5-10 hour and carry out precalcining; Secondary ball milling 6-12 hour, 40-70 ℃ of oven dry down, under inert atmosphere or reducing atmosphere, 550-850 ℃ of following secondary clacining obtained transition element doped LiFePO 4 powder then.Adopt ferro-compound as source of iron, and the LiFePO 4 that utilizes the method for secondary clacining to obtain to make the specific discharge capacity of the battery that obtains higher relatively, heavy-current discharge performance is better relatively, but tap density is low, and volume and capacity ratio is low, therefore, the battery volume that makes is bigger.
CN1775665A discloses the method that a kind of solid phase reduction legal system is equipped with LiFePO 4, this method comprise will contain Li source compound, ferric iron source compound, P source compound and organic additive mix, add organic solvent, in ball mill ball milling 1-8 hour; Then 100-120 ℃ of oven dry; Under 500-800 ℃ of constant temperature sintering 4-24 hour again; Last naturally cooling is worn into powder with the LiFePO 4 solid that makes in ball mill.The employing ferric iron compound is big as the tap density of the LiFePO 4 that source of iron prepares, the volume and capacity ratio height, and still, grain graininess is big, and purity is not high, and conductivity of electrolyte materials is lower, and heavy-current discharge performance is undesirable.
Summary of the invention
The objective of the invention is to adopt the LiFePO 4 of prior art for preparing can not take into account high specific discharge capacity and volume and capacity ratio in order to overcome, make the battery for preparing to take into account the defective of heavy body, good heavy-current discharge performance and smaller size smaller, provide a kind of and have high specific discharge capacity and volume and capacity ratio, and make the battery volume less and have the preparation method of the LiFePO 4 of heavy body and good heavy-current discharge performance simultaneously.
The present inventor finds, prepare by existing solid phase method that we recognize in the technology of LiFePO 4, mainly comprise in the existing solid phase synthesis process and adopt the divalence source of iron as the preparation method of reaction raw materials with adopt the preparation method of ferric iron source as reaction raw materials.For adopting the divalence source of iron all to adopt the technology of secondary clacining as the method for reaction raw materials, purpose is to make the bigger ferrous salt of grain graininess carry out pyrolytic decomposition in the time of the first step incinerating, and then in secondary clacining, can prepare the less LiFePO 4 particle of grain graininess, therefore, specific discharge capacity is higher relatively, in addition, when battery carries out heavy-current discharge, lithium ion takes off embedding and embedding in solid particulate distance shortens, therefore, the heavy-current discharge performance of battery is better relatively.But, in the first step calcination process of pretreatment stage, make oarse-grained ferrous salt, when carrying out pyrolytic decomposition, can emit a large amount of gas, as ammonia, carbonic acid gas etc. as Ferrox, can cause the material mesoporosity to increase, short texture, tap density is low, and accumulation property is poor, therefore, the LiFePO 4 granular size irregularity that obtains behind the secondary clacining, though can obtain the ferrous phosphate particle of relative small particle size by two-section calcining,, because granular size irregularity, cause tap density low, accumulation property is poor, so volume and capacity ratio is low.The existing employing in the technology of ferric iron as the feedstock production LiFePO 4, because the difference of source of iron, therefore, only need to adopt one-step calcination just can obtain the relatively large LiFePO 4 particle of tap density, the volume and capacity ratio of the lithium ion battery that the LiFePO 4 that therefore adopts this method to obtain prepares is higher relatively, but the electric conductivity of LiFePO 4 is low, and cell container is not high.
The invention provides a kind of preparation method of active material for anode of Li-ion secondary battery LiFePO 4, this method comprises and will contain the mixture sintering of lithium compound, iron cpd, phosphorus compound and carbon source additive, the sintered product that cooling obtains, wherein, described iron cpd is a ferric iron compound; Described agglomerating method is in inertia or reducing atmosphere, and the constant temperature sintering obtains sintered product under first sintering temperature, and the product that the first sintering temperature sintering is obtained is reduced to room temperature then, with dispersant and grinding; Constant temperature sintering under second sintering temperature, and in inertia or reducing atmosphere, reduce to room temperature, second sintering temperature is higher than at least 100 ℃ of first sintering temperatures.
The present inventor finds unexpectedly, adopt the ferric iron source compound as raw material, and mix with Li source compound, P source compound and carbon source additive, the specific discharge capacity and the volume and capacity ratio that carry out the LiFePO 4 that obtains behind the two-step sintering are all higher, after this LiFePO 4 is prepared into battery, the capacity and the heavy-current discharge performance of battery all are significantly improved, make battery can take into account heavy body and preferable heavy-current discharge performance simultaneously and the battery volume for preparing less.The reason of inferring may be, when adopting ferric iron source to carry out the first step incinerating, under the temperature that is fit to, be preferably under 250-400 ℃, at first be to allow raw material fully react, and there is the part LiFePO 4 to generate, but complete crystallization not, before the second step sintering, grind with first sintered product and dispersant and to material again, be preferably ball milling, can make the particle of material thinner, size is more even, reaches at ball milling necessarily to require laggard second step of row sintering, can eliminate because the short texture in the first step sintering process, and make material carry out secondary crystal, thus can reform to the LiFePO 4 crystallization, reach the further material pattern that improves, the purpose that size distribution and further crystallization are handled.In addition, according to of the present invention one preferred embodiment, after with first sintered product and dispersant and ball milling, carry out compressing tablet again, can allow raw material that decomposition reaction takes place fully, described compressing tablet can make the diffusion length of various ions between solid phase material that participates in reaction shorten, when second goes on foot sintering, can make material carry out secondary crystal more fully, thereby can reform to the LiFePO 4 crystallization, make the material that obtains adopt ferric one-step calcination technology relatively with existing, the grain diameter of the LiFePO 4 that obtains is little, pattern is regular, crystal formation is grown, be evenly distributed and tap density big, therefore, when battery charging and discharging, help shortening lithium ion taking off embedding and embedding diffusion length in LiFePO 4, improved the conductivity of material.Therefore, adopt the specific discharge capacity and the volume and capacity ratio of the LiFePO 4 that such method obtains all higher, therefore can take into account the advantage of the LiFePO 4 that is prepared as source of iron respectively by ferrous iron and ferric iron, improved performance is remarkable.
