In recent years, lithium batteries have been widely used in electric vehicles, energy storage and special batteries due to their advantages of high specific energy, high voltage, light weight, wide temperature range (-40-60 ℃), etc. In addition, in the face of increasingly severe contradiction of lithium resource supply in the world, the price of lithium salt is continuously increased, and the price of lithium carbonate is suddenly increased by 40w/t, so that the waste lithium ion battery has great economic value and potential harm, and most of the waste batteries mainly comprise lithium iron phosphate batteries.
The existing recovery technology of waste lithium iron phosphate anode materials is mainly divided into a solid phase recovery technology and a wet recovery technology according to different recovery principles. The solid phase recovery method has the advantages of short flow, low cost and the like, and becomes a main research direction for recovering waste lithium iron phosphate anode materials, wherein the original lithium iron phosphate is also mainly a solid phase method, but the low energy density in the synthesis and repair products of the solid phase method is an important reason for restricting the application field of the lithium iron phosphate anode materials. The improvement of the compacted density of the lithium iron phosphate is one of effective methods for improving the energy density of the material, and the improvement of the compacted density of the material mainly comprises measures of doping, cladding, material micron-sizing and the like.
Patent CN 108091833A (a high compaction density lithium iron phosphate composite material and a preparation method thereof) adds graphene to a lithium iron phosphate precursor, so that the material is uniformly dispersed, and the compacted density of the material is improved by utilizing the self-lubricating effect of the graphene. Patent CN 108878797A (a high compaction density lithium iron phosphate positive electrode material and positive electrode plate) disperses and combines lithium iron phosphate nanoparticles to form secondary microparticles with controllable particle size, uses a coating agent to control particle size, and introduces a carbon nanotube material into the microparticles to improve the binding force between the nanoparticles, thereby improving the compaction density of the lithium iron phosphate material.
