Description

Process for purifying sodium hexafluorophosphate by complex recrystallization
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of sodium hexafluorophosphate purification, in particular to a process for purifying sodium hexafluorophosphate by complex recrystallization.
Background
Sodium hexafluorophosphate (NaPF) 6 ) Is a white crystal or powdery inorganic salt which is easy to dissolve in common organic solvents such as methanol, ethanol, acetone, carbonic ester and the like, can realize high conductivity, is beneficial to the sodium ion battery to obtain high energy density, long cycle life and low self-discharge rate, and is a promising electrolyte salt for the sodium ion battery. But NaPF is 6 Is very soluble in water and deliquescent, and strict process control is required to meet the indexes of battery-grade electrolyte such as purity, free acid, moisture and the like, and the purification of sodium hexafluorophosphate is also required to be higher.
At present, the purification method of sodium hexafluorophosphate is mainly to directly recrystallize the target product, namely, the solubility of the solvent to sodium hexafluorophosphate and impurities is different, so that the sodium hexafluorophosphate is separated out of supersaturated solution, and all or most of impurities remain in the solution. The crystallization process is a process of forming crystals by arranging substances in a lattice form, so that impurities do not participate in crystal formation, and the purification effect is achieved.
Common sodium hexafluorophosphate recrystallization processes include: naPF is cooled 6 Directly crystallizing from anhydrous hydrogen fluoride; dissolving sodium hexafluorophosphate in a solvent, and recrystallizing the sodium hexafluorophosphate from the solvent through a cooling or evaporating process; sodium hexafluorophosphate is dissolved in a benign solvent and recrystallized therefrom by the addition of a poor solvent. Wherein, the direct crystallization from anhydrous hydrogen fluoride requires a long time>48h) Low temperature environment of (2)(<-30 ℃ and a large amount of free acid and water can be reserved in the product, so that the quality of the product is affected; solvents such as methanol, ethanol, ethyl acetate, acetone and the like can well dissolve sodium hexafluorophosphate, but the solubility of the sodium hexafluorophosphate is not obvious along with the temperature change, recrystallization is difficult in a cooling mode, the recrystallization temperature is generally lower than-40 ℃, and evaporation quantity is difficult to control for evaporation crystallization; the recrystallization condition is easy to meet by adopting the process of 'good solvent + poor solvent', but the generated mixed solvent needs to be separated again for reuse, which leads to complex operation flow.
Disclosure of Invention
The purpose of the invention is that: the process for purifying the sodium hexafluorophosphate by complex recrystallization is safe and controllable in condition, low in energy consumption, low in purification cost, high in overall purification yield, high in purity of the purified sodium hexafluorophosphate, low in free acid content of 5ppm and low in water content of 10ppm, and is suitable for industrial production.
The process for purifying sodium hexafluorophosphate by complex recrystallization comprises the following steps:
(1) Dissolution and neutralization: dissolving a sodium hexafluorophosphate crude product in an organic solvent at the temperature of 30-50 ℃ to obtain a sodium hexafluorophosphate crude product solution, adding an alkaline substance to neutralize, adjusting the pH value to 8-9, standing and aging;
(2) And (5) recrystallizing: aging, performing primary filtration, recrystallizing the liquid phase obtained after filtration at the temperature of-10-20 ℃, then filtering again, and washing the obtained solid phase with an organic solvent, wherein the obtained solid phase is sodium hexafluorophosphate-organic solvent complex crystals;
(3) Melting and evaporating: heating the washed sodium hexafluorophosphate-organic solvent complex crystal to completely melt into liquid, continuing heating to evaporate the organic solvent, introducing nitrogen after the liquid is gelatinous, stirring until the gelatinous state is converted into powdery solid, stopping introducing nitrogen and heating, and obtaining the purified sodium hexafluorophosphate.
In the sodium hexafluorophosphate crude product, the content of sodium hexafluorophosphate is more than or equal to 85 wt%, the content of sodium fluoride is less than or equal to 5 wt%, the content of hydrogen fluoride is less than or equal to 6 wt%, the content of water is less than or equal to 2 wt%, the total content of sodium difluorophosphate, sodium monofluorophosphate and phosphate is less than or equal to 1 wt%, and the total content of various cationic impurities is less than or equal to 1 wt%.
In the step (1), the organic solvent is one or more of nitriles, carbonates and ethers; preferably acetonitrile, propionitrile, dimethyl carbonate, diethyl carbonate, dipropyl carbonate, methyl ethyl carbonate, ethylene carbonate, propylene carbonate, ethylene carbonate, butylene carbonate, pentylene carbonate, ethylene glycol dimethyl ether, diethyl ether; further preferred is one of acetonitrile, dimethyl carbonate and ethylene glycol dimethyl ether.
In the step (1), the mass volume ratio of the crude sodium hexafluorophosphate product to the organic solvent is (0.2-0.5) g/1 ml.
Action of organic solvent: firstly, fully dissolving a sodium hexafluorophosphate crude product; and secondly, forming a complex with sodium hexafluorophosphate as a ligand, and crystallizing and separating out in a complex form during recrystallization.
In selecting the organic solvent, the following factors need to be considered: on one hand, the organic solvent has good solubility for sodium hexafluorophosphate; on the other hand, the organic solvent is capable of forming a complex with sodium hexafluorophosphate and crystallizing under relatively mild conditions in preference to sodium hexafluorophosphate alone. The organic solvent selected by the invention has a functional group containing lone pair electrons, and the solvent ligand can form strong field action with the central atom, preferably the ligand can contribute more than 1 to the separation energy of the functional group compound, such as ethers, carbonates and nitriles; common organic solvents such as alcohols, ketones, alkyl esters, alkanes, haloalkanes are not suitable.
In selecting the amount of organic solvent, the following factors need to be considered: on one hand, the dosage of the organic solvent can fully dissolve the crude sodium hexafluorophosphate, so that crystals are not separated out from the solution during aging; on the other hand, coordination number of the complex formed by sodium hexafluorophosphate is generally about 5-7, and the organic solvent needs to be fully saturated by complexing with sodium hexafluorophosphate. Under the condition of ensuring complete formation of the complex, too little organic solvent can lead to crystal precipitation and impurity encapsulation in the aging process, and the purity and yield of the product are reduced; excessive amounts of organic solvents can lead to reduced precipitation of complex crystals during recrystallization, reducing product yields. Therefore, the amount of the organic solvent should be not less than 5 to 7 times the amount of the sodium hexafluorophosphate substance.
In the step (1), the alkaline substance is one of sodium methoxide, sodium ethoxide, sodium hydroxide, sodium carbonate, sodium bicarbonate, ammonia gas, ethylenediamine, diethylamine and triethylamine.
In some embodiments, the alkaline substance may be dissolved in an appropriate amount of organic solvent, and then added to the crude sodium hexafluorophosphate solution for neutralization, where the organic solvent is the same as the organic solvent in which the crude sodium hexafluorophosphate is dissolved.
According to the invention, the alkaline substance is added to adjust the pH value of the sodium hexafluorophosphate crude product solution to be slightly alkaline, so that on one hand, the content of acidic substances which seriously affect the stability of the product can be reduced; on the other hand, impurities in the product can be precipitated or substances with low solubility can be generated, so that the purpose of purifying the solution is achieved. The pH value is adjusted to be slightly alkaline, and then the pH value is aged for a period of time, so that small insoluble particles in the solution can be flocculated and aggregated, and separation is facilitated.
In the step (1), standing and ageing are carried out for 1-6 hours.
In the step (2), the pore diameter of the filter membrane for primary filtration is less than or equal to 0.22 mu m. The solid phase obtained after filtration is a small amount of solid insoluble matters; the obtained liquid phase is sodium hexafluorophosphate solution, the filtrate is kept at the temperature of-10-20 ℃ for 2-4 hours, and crystals are separated out from the solution in the process to form solid and liquid phases.
During the recrystallization, the crystals precipitated by the supersaturated solution are sodium hexafluorophosphate-organic solvent complex crystals, not sodium hexafluorophosphate crystals.
For the recrystallization process temperature selection, a temperature at which the gradient of the solubility of the object to be crystallized to the temperature is large is generally selected for the heat-retaining operation. The recrystallization generally comprises two stages of nucleation and crystal growth, wherein the nucleation rate decreases with the increase of supercooling degree, and the crystal growth rate increases with the increase of supercooling degree, and the recrystallization is generally carried out at a temperature at which both nucleation and crystal growth reach a higher rate, or at a temperature at which the nucleation rate is faster for a period of time, and then cooled to a temperature at which the crystal growth rate is faster for standing. The recrystallization target of the present invention is a sodium hexafluorophosphate-organic solvent complex instead of sodium hexafluorophosphate, so the recrystallization temperature is closer to room temperature, and the recrystallization temperature is adjusted according to the type of organic solvent (ligand).
In the step (2), the pore diameter of the filtering membrane filtered again is less than or equal to 1 mu m. The liquid phase obtained after filtration is mother liquor after recrystallization, and the main components of the mother liquor are sodium hexafluorophosphate, soluble impurities and organic solvents, and the mother liquor is recovered for dissolving sodium hexafluorophosphate crude products; the solid phase obtained is sodium hexafluorophosphate-organic solvent complex crystal.
In the step (2), the organic solvent at the temperature of-20-0 ℃ is used for washing, the organic solvent used for washing is the same as the organic solvent for dissolving the sodium hexafluorophosphate crude product, and the washed organic solvent is recycled for dissolving the sodium hexafluorophosphate crude product.
In the step (3), the temperature is 45-60 ℃ when the washed sodium hexafluorophosphate-organic solvent complex crystal is heated and melted. This temperature is higher than the melting point temperature of the corresponding sodium hexafluorophosphate-organic solvent complex crystal, for example, the heating melting temperature of the sodium hexafluorophosphate-acetonitrile complex crystal may be 45 ℃.
In the step (3), when the organic solvent is evaporated by continuing heating, the organic solvent is preferably evaporated by heating to 50 to 80 ℃ under vacuum. And regulating the system pressure according to the selected solvent type to ensure that the boiling point is 50-80 ℃.
The sodium hexafluorophosphate-organic solvent complex crystal obtained by recrystallization is composed of sodium hexafluorophosphate and a certain proportion of organic solvent molecules, the complex crystal can be heated and melted into liquid, a large amount of organic solvent molecules can be dissociated after the complex crystal is melted, the organic solvent is removed and recovered by evaporation, and the partially recovered organic solvent can be used for dissolving sodium hexafluorophosphate crude products or washing sodium hexafluorophosphate-organic solvent complex crystals. Most of the organic solvent is evaporated and then the liquid is converted into viscous colloidal fluid, and the viscous colloidal fluid can be stirred and dried by a drying airflow to further remove the residual organic solvent, so that a powdery and dried sodium hexafluorophosphate product is finally obtained.
The invention mainly achieves the aim of purifying the crude sodium hexafluorophosphate product through a recrystallization process, but unlike the traditional recrystallization process, the invention does not directly recrystallize sodium hexafluorophosphate, but recrystallizes sodium hexafluorophosphate-organic solvent complex, and then separates out the organic solvent through a melting evaporation mode. It is necessary to distinguish the difference between sodium hexafluorophosphate-organic solvent complex and sodium hexafluorophosphate, solvent (ligand), sodium hexafluorophosphate is dissolved in solvent to form solution, sodium hexafluorophosphate coordinates with solvent in solution to form complex, and complex can be crystallized out under proper condition.
The principle of the invention is to purify sodium hexafluorophosphate by adopting a complex recrystallization method. By selecting appropriate solvents and process conditions, solvation is utilized to form complexes of ions with solvent molecules. Solvation is a process in which solvent molecules accumulate around ions through interactions with the ions, giving off a large amount of heat, and it is desirable to maintain temperature stability within a certain range while continuing to cool. According to the invention, a proper solvent is selected to dissolve the sodium hexafluorophosphate crude product to form a sodium hexafluorophosphate solution, and a complex formed by solvation of sodium hexafluorophosphate and solvent molecules in the solution is crystallized and separated out under proper conditions. Complex recrystallization has the following advantages over direct recrystallization of sodium hexafluorophosphate: firstly, the sodium hexafluorophosphate forms a complex, so that the interaction between the sodium hexafluorophosphate and impurities can be weakened, and the purity of the sodium hexafluorophosphate can be improved; secondly, compared with sodium hexafluorophosphate, the complex is easier to crystallize, the recrystallization temperature is relatively high, and the energy conservation and consumption reduction are facilitated; thirdly, the formation of a complex can also avoid the contact of sodium hexafluorophosphate with acid and moisture, improve the stability of sodium hexafluorophosphate in the operation process, and further reduce the acid content and the water content in the pure sodium hexafluorophosphate.
Compared with the prior art, the invention has the following beneficial effects:
(1) According to the invention, by selecting proper solvent types and recrystallization process conditions, a complex of ions and solvent molecules is formed by solvation, and crystallization is performed under proper conditions, so that compared with the direct recrystallization of sodium hexafluorophosphate, the sodium hexafluorophosphate-organic solvent complex crystal selected by the invention has milder crystallization conditions and is easier to crystallize, thereby being beneficial to energy conservation and consumption reduction, and the complex formed by sodium hexafluorophosphate can weaken the interaction of sodium hexafluorophosphate and impurities, and simultaneously avoid the contact of sodium hexafluorophosphate with acid and water, thereby improving the purity of sodium hexafluorophosphate and reducing the acid content and water content in sodium hexafluorophosphate pure products;

Comparative examples 3 to 5
In order to examine the influence of the type of organic solvent on the formation of sodium hexafluorophosphate-organic solvent complex crystals, comparative examples 3 to 5 were different from example 1 in that methanol (alcohols), ethyl acetate (alkyl esters), acetone (ketones) were used as the organic solvents, respectively, and when recrystallization was performed, the temperature was lowered to-40 ℃ without any crystal precipitation.
Comparative example 6
To examine the effect of the amount of organic solvent on the formation of sodium hexafluorophosphate-organic solvent complex crystals, this comparative example was different from example 1 in that in step (1), 150g of crude sodium hexafluorophosphate was dissolved in 2230mL of acetonitrile, and as a result, the temperature was lowered to-40 ℃ during recrystallization, no crystals were precipitated, indicating that too low a solution concentration could not achieve precipitation of sodium hexafluorophosphate-organic solvent complex crystals.
Comparative example 7
