Description

Lithium ion sieve adsorbent material and preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The application belongs to the technical field of energy materials, and particularly relates to a lithium ion sieve adsorbent material, and a preparation method and application thereof.
Background
Lithium is widely used in the fields of energy, electronics, chemical industry, aerospace and the like, and at present, about three quarters of the world of lithium resources are used for manufacturing lithium ion batteries. With the growth of new energy automobile industry and energy storage industry, the demand of lithium ion batteries and lithium resources is increasing. The salt lake brine contains a great amount of lithium resources, which account for about 60% of the world's lithium resources, and how to efficiently extract lithium from the salt lake brine has become a problem to be solved.
In the aspect of extracting lithium from salt lake brine, an adsorbent method, a solvent extraction method, a membrane method and the like are the most main methods. The adsorption method is considered as one of the most promising lithium extraction methods in salt lakes at present due to the characteristics of good ion selectivity, environmental friendliness, high cyclic utilization rate and the like. The core of the adsorption process is the adsorbent material, with the ion sieve oxide being the most studied and best performing adsorbent at present. Existing ion sieve adsorbents mainly include aluminum, manganese and titanium, especially spinel manganese (HMn 2 O 4 、H 1.33 Mn 1.67 O 4 、H 1.6 Mn 1.6 O 4 Etc.) and titanium-based ion sieve material (H) 2 TiO 3 Etc.) has the characteristics of good selectivity, large adsorption capacity and high cyclic utilization rate, and can obviously improve the efficiency of extracting lithium from brine.
However, conventional lithium ion sieve materials require a lithium source (e.g., lithium hydroxide or lithium carbonate) as a starting material to prepare a lithium-containing precursor, and then washing out the lithium from the lattice with dilute sulfuric acid or dilute hydrochloric acid to obtain the ion sieve material. Not only has complex working procedures and high cost, but also consumes a large amount of fresh water and acid, and has serious pollution. In the subsequent use process, the traditional lithium ion sieve material adopts the working principle of proton-lithium ion exchange to realize the extraction of lithium from brine, and realizes the recycling through acid leaching, thus having the problems of insufficient stability and the like.
