The electrolyte lithium salt is the main component of lithium ion battery electrolyte, and more commonly used types include lithium difluorooxalato borate, lithium difluorophosphate, lithium hexafluorophosphate and the like. Among these, the dominant lithium electrolyte salt is lithium hexafluorophosphate.
In the related art, there is a method for preparing lithium hexafluorophosphate, comprising the following steps: (1) Uniformly mixing 20.8kg of phosphorus pentachloride solid, 100L of triethylamine and 10kg of fluorinating agent under the protection of nitrogen, preserving the temperature at 5 ℃ for 4 hours, and filtering to remove hydrochloride to obtain a mixed solution of phosphorus pentafluoride triethylamine complex; in the step, the fluorinating agent is liquid hydrogen fluoride; (2) Under the protection of nitrogen, weighing anhydrous lithium fluoride, adding the anhydrous lithium fluoride into a ball mill, grinding to obtain anhydrous lithium fluoride powder, and uniformly stirring 3kg of anhydrous lithium fluoride powder, 0.15kg of PEG400 dispersing agent and 10L of triethylamine to obtain a lithium fluoride mixture; (3) Adding the mixed solution of the phosphorus pentafluoride triethylamine complex into a lithium fluoride mixture under the nitrogen atmosphere at the temperature of 5 ℃, then preserving the heat for 4 hours at the temperature of 10 ℃, filtering to remove unreacted lithium fluoride, concentrating the filtrate under reduced pressure to obtain crude lithium hexafluorophosphate, fully mixing and filtering the crude lithium hexafluorophosphate with 100L of dimethyl carbonate (purity 99.98% and water content of 8 ppm) under the nitrogen atmosphere at the temperature of 20 ℃, concentrating and crystallizing the filtrate to obtain a semi-finished product of lithium hexafluorophosphate, and then drying in vacuum for 24 hours at the temperature of 30 ℃ and 5mmHg to obtain the lithium hexafluorophosphate.
In view of the above-mentioned related art, the inventors believe that although the preparation of lithium hexafluorophosphate is achieved in the related art, the solubility of lithium fluoride in triethylamine is poor, and the phosphorus pentafluoride triethylamine complex in the mixed solution can only react on the surface of anhydrous lithium fluoride powder, affecting the rate of formation of lithium hexafluorophosphate.
Disclosure of Invention
In the related art, the phosphorus pentafluoride triethylamine complex can only react on the surface of anhydrous lithium fluoride powder, and the generation rate of lithium hexafluorophosphate is affected. To ameliorate this disadvantage, the present application provides a method of preparing lithium hexafluorophosphate.

(3) Calcining the lithium fluoride mixture to constant weight at 700-750 ℃ to obtain porous lithium fluoride, and cooling the porous lithium fluoride to room temperature for later use;

Because the porous lithium fluoride has larger specific surface area compared with the lithium fluoride powder, the contact between the phosphorus pentafluoride triethylamine complex and the lithium fluoride is more sufficient, thereby improving the production rate of the lithium hexafluorophosphate and shortening the time required for producing the lithium hexafluorophosphate.

(3) An atomic absorption spectrophotometer is used for measuring the absorbance of the solution in the volumetric flask in sequence after the sensitivity of the instrument is regulated at the wavelength of 670.7nm and the water solution is zeroed;
(4) The absorbance of the blank solution is subtracted from the measured absorbance, the mass (mg) of lithium added to the lithium standard solution is taken as an abscissa, the absorbance is taken as an ordinate, a working curve is drawn, and the working curve is extrapolated to the point where the absorbance is zero, namely, the intersection point with the abscissa is the mass (mg) of lithium in the sample solution.
TABLE 3 Table 3
After the operation is completed, the mass fraction (w 2 )。
Wherein m is 4 For the mass of lithium (mg) in the test solution, which was found from the working curve, m3 is the sample mass.
Measuring mass fraction w of lithium ion 1 And mass fraction w of hexafluorophosphate ion 2 Thereafter, w is 1 And w 2 The addition represents the purity of lithium hexafluorophosphate.
The results of the lithium hexafluorophosphate purity measurements are shown in Table 4.
TABLE 4 Table 4
As can be seen in combination with examples 1-5 and comparative examples 1-2 and with Table 2, the yield of lithium hexafluorophosphate measured in comparative example 1 was close to that of examples 1-5, indicating that the yield of lithium hexafluorophosphate at a reaction time of 65min for the production of lithium hexafluorophosphate in the present application was equivalent to that measured in comparative example 1 for 4 h. The yield of lithium hexafluorophosphate measured in comparative example 2 is significantly lower than that of examples 1-5, indicating that the use of porous lithium fluoride instead of anhydrous lithium fluoride powder in the present application significantly increases the rate of formation of lithium hexafluorophosphate and shortens the time required to produce lithium hexafluorophosphate.
As can be seen from the combination of examples 1 to 5 and comparative example 3 and the combination of Table 2, the yield of lithium hexafluorophosphate measured in comparative example 3 was only about half that of examples 1 to 5, indicating that in comparative example 3, the amount of lithium hexafluorophosphate produced was small due to insufficient reaction time, and thus the measured yield was low.
As can be seen from the combination of examples 1 to 5 and comparative example 4 and the combination of table 2, comparative example 4 was not dried before preparing porous lithium fluoride, and thus the uniformity of the prepared porous lithium fluoride was poor, resulting in a decrease in the reactivity of the porous lithium fluoride, and thus the yield of lithium hexafluorophosphate measured in comparative example 4 was slightly lower than that in examples 1 to 5.
As can be seen in connection with examples 1-5 and Table 2, there is no significant change in the yield of lithium hexafluorophosphate measured in examples 1-5, indicating that varying the amounts of pore former, combustion improver, and binder dispersion in the formulation of the present application had little effect on the rate of formation of lithium hexafluorophosphate.
As can be seen from the combination of example 3 and example 6 and the combination of table 2, the triethylamine hydrogen trifluoride salt and triethylamine have better compatibility, so that the uniformity of the prepared raw material liquid is higher, the rate of formation of lithium hexafluorophosphate is increased, and the yield measured in example 6 is higher than that in example 3.
As can be seen from the combination of examples 6 and 7 and table 2, since the starch swells after absorbing the moisture in the binder dispersion, the swelled starch can increase the viscosity of the binder dispersion, thereby reducing the possibility of bleeding of the lithium fluoride mixture during the standing process, improving the uniformity of the lithium fluoride mixture, improving the pore-forming effect on the lithium fluoride mixture, and increasing the rate of formation of lithium hexafluorophosphate.
As can be seen in combination with example 3, example 8 and table 4, the purity of lithium hexafluorophosphate measured in example 8 is higher than example 3, indicating that the impurities in the porous lithium fluoride are less and the purity of lithium hexafluorophosphate is higher when the binder dispersion is formulated from gelatin and deionized water.
As can be seen from the combination of example 9 and example 8 and the combination of table 4, the inorganic salt in the straw is washed off due to the fact that the straw carbon particles are washed in the preparation process, so that impurities in the porous lithium fluoride are reduced, and the purity of the lithium hexafluorophosphate is improved.
As can be seen from the combination of example 10 and example 9 and the combination of table 4, since the straw carbon particles of the present application were washed with the sodium dodecyl sulfate solution, the tar formed during carbonization of the straw could also be washed away, thereby further reducing the impurities in the porous lithium fluoride and improving the purity of the lithium hexafluorophosphate.
The present embodiment is merely illustrative of the present application and is not intended to be limiting, and those skilled in the art, after having read the present specification, may make modifications to the present embodiment without creative contribution as required, but is protected by patent laws within the scope of the claims of the present application.
