Description

【０００１】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、ＶＯＰＯ4・２Ｈ2Ｏの製造方法に関し、特に超音波化学的方法によるＶＯＰＯ4・２Ｈ2Ｏの製造方法に関する。
【０００２】
【従来の技術】
リチウム二次電池は、充放電が可能なエネルギー貯蔵装置であって、小型の電子機器の電源に用いられている。近年、充放電容量は大きくて、重量は軽い二次電池の開発が活発に進められている。現在リチウム二次電池の正極物質には、主にＬｉＣｏＯ2を用いているが、材料コストが非常に高いことが問題点である。このような問題点を解決するための代案としてＬｉＮｉＯ2またはＬｉＭｎ2Ｏ4物質が提示されたことがあるが、合成が容易ではないという問題、または充放電回数に応じて充放電容量が減少するというなどの新しい問題点が生じている。したがって高い電圧を有しながら充放電特性の優れた低コストの新しい物質の開発の必要性が望まれている。
【０００３】
これと関連して、最近研究されている非晶質Ｖ2Ｏ5キセロゲルは、高容量の特性を示すが、平均電圧が低いという問題点を有している。これに対し、金属−酸素間のイオン結合特性を強化させる場合、平均電圧を向上させることが可能であるという研究結果が報告されたことがある(K.S.Nanjundaswamy、A.K.Padhi、J.B.Goodenough、S.Okada、H.Ohtsuka、H.Arai、and J.Yamaki、Solid State Ionics、92、1 (1996); C.Masquelier、A.K.Padhi、K.S.Nanjundaswamy、and J.B.Goodenough、J.Solid State Chem.、135、228 (1998))。
【０００４】
金属−酸素間イオン結合特性を強化させる方法の一つには、（ＰＯ4）3-、（ＳＯ4）2-、（ＡｓＯ4）3-のような共有結合特性を有する物質を置換することである。このうち（ＳＯ4）2-がバナジウム酸化物に置換されたＶＯＳＯ4をリチウム二次電池に適用する場合、Ｖ4+／Ｖ3+酸化−還元による低い電圧が予想され、ＶＯＡｓＯ4は、Ｖ5+／Ｖ4+酸化−還元により高い電圧が予想されるが、高い質量による理論容量の減少と砒素の有害性のような短所を持っている。これに対し、ＶＯＰＯ4は、環境的に安定し、高い電圧と相対的に低い質量による高い理論容量が期待されるという長所も持っている。
【０００５】
これと関連して、二つの水分子を含むＶＯＰＯ4・２Ｈ2Ｏ化合物は、既に１９６５年に知られた物質であって、今まで知られた製造方法により結晶性を有するＶ2Ｏ5粉末とＨ3ＰＯ4水溶液を２４時間以上還流して製造する方法が知られている(G.Ladwig、Z.Anorg.Allg.Chem.、338、p 266 (1965))。しかし、このような方法は、２４時間以上の長時間の反応時間が必要であるのみでなく、粒子も０．０１〜０．２５ｍｍと大きいために、今まで主に触媒材料として応用されており、リチウム二次電池の正極材料に応用されていないというのが実状である。また、"Redox intercalation of alkali metals into vanadyl phosphate dihydrate(A.Chauvel 他.、Material Chemistry and Physics、40、pp.207-211、1995)でもＶＯＰＯ4・２Ｈ2Ｏの製造方法と、製造されたＶＯＰＯ4・２Ｈ2Ｏの層間にアルカリ金属イオンを挿入させた化合物の構造が開示されているが、前述したことと同様に、長時間に亘る還流法によって製造し、また製造されたＶＯＰＯ4・２Ｈ2Ｏも粒子の大きさが１０μｍ以上と大きいことが明らかになった。
【０００６】
また、前述したように現在商用化されているリチウム二次電池の正極物質のＬｉＣｏＯ2は、高い酸化−還元電位と長期的な充放電安定性を有するが、原料単価が高いという問題点のために、これを代替することのできる安いながら充放電特性に優れた材料の開発が要求されている。
【０００７】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
そこで、本発明は、前述のような従来の技術の問題点に鑑みてなされたものであって、反応時間を非常に短縮させながらより小さい粒子の大きさを有するＶＯＰＯ4・２Ｈ2Ｏの新しい製造方法を提供することにその目的がある。
【０００８】
また、本発明は、前述のような新しい製造方法によって製造されたＶＯＰＯ4・２Ｈ2Ｏを含んで製造されたリチウム二次電池の正極物質を提供することにその目的がある。
【０００９】
【課題を解決するための手段】
前述のような目的を達成するために、本発明者らは鋭意研究を重ねた結果、超音波化学的方法を利用してＶＯＰＯ4・２Ｈ2Ｏを製造する場合、前述のような問題点を解決することができるということに着目して本発明を完成することに至った。

【００１１】
また、本発明は上記目的を達成するため、前述のＶ2Ｏ5：Ｈ3ＰＯ4：Ｈ2Ｏのモル比を１：４０〜５０：５００〜６１０で混合する工程と、前述の混合溶液を超音波処理する工程と、超音波処理して得られた物を洗浄した後、減圧ろ過させる工程と、ろ過して得られた物を常温で乾燥及び回収する工程とを含んでなるＶＯＰＯ4・２Ｈ2Ｏの製造方法を提供する。
【００１２】
さらに、本発明は前述の製造方法によって製造されたＶＯＰＯ4・２Ｈ2Ｏはリチウム二次電池の正電極用として使用することに非常に好適な特性を有しており、ＶＯＰＯ4・２Ｈ2Ｏのそのような用途を提供する。
【００１３】
また、本発明は上記目的を達成するため、Ｖ2Ｏ5、Ｈ3ＰＯ4、及びＨ2Ｏの混合溶液を超音波処理して製造したＶＯＰＯ4・２Ｈ2Ｏと、アセチレンブラックと、ポリ四塩化エチレンとが、各々６０〜８０重量％：１５〜２５重量％：５〜１５重量％で混合されたリチウム二次電池の正電極用組成物を提供する。

【００２３】
図６は、充放電回数に伴う放電容量の変化を示しており、充放電サイクルが反復されても放電容量は初期値から大きく外れなかった。これから本発明によって製造されたＶＯＰＯ4・２Ｈ2Ｏは優れたサイクル特性を有する物質であることが分かる。

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a method for producing VOPO 4 .2H 2 O, and more particularly to a method for producing VOPO 4 .2H 2 O by an ultrasonic chemical method.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Lithium secondary batteries are energy storage devices that can be charged and discharged, and are used as power sources for small electronic devices. In recent years, the development of secondary batteries with large charge / discharge capacity and light weight has been actively promoted. Currently, LiCoO 2 is mainly used as the positive electrode material of the lithium secondary battery, but the problem is that the material cost is very high. LiNiO 2 or LiMn 2 O 4 materials have been presented as an alternative to solve such problems, but the problem is that synthesis is not easy, or the charge / discharge capacity decreases according to the number of charge / discharge cycles. There are new problems such as. Therefore, it is desired to develop a new low-cost material having a high voltage and excellent charge / discharge characteristics.
[0003]
In this connection, the recently studied amorphous V 2 O 5 xerogel exhibits high capacity characteristics but has a problem of low average voltage. On the other hand, research results have reported that the average voltage can be improved when the metal-oxygen ionic bond characteristics are enhanced (KSNanjundaswamy, AKPadhi, JBGoodenough, S. Okada, H. Ohtsuka, H.Arai, and J.Yamaki, Solid State Ionics, 92, 1 (1996); C. Masquelier, AKPadhi, KSNanjundaswamy, and JBGoodenough, J. Solid State Chem., 135, 228 (1998)).
[0004]
One way to enhance the metal-oxygen ionic bond properties is to substitute a material with covalent properties such as (PO 4 ) 3− , (SO 4 ) 2− , (AsO 4 ) 3− It is. When applying these the (SO 4) VOSO 4 to 2 is replaced with vanadium oxide in a lithium secondary battery, V 4+ / V 3+ oxidation - low voltage by reduction is expected, VOAsO 4 is, V 5+ / V 4+ oxidation - but higher voltage reduction is expected to have disadvantages, such as hazard reduction and arsenic of the theoretical capacity due to high mass. On the other hand, VOPO 4 has the advantages that it is environmentally stable and a high theoretical capacity due to a high voltage and a relatively low mass is expected.
[0005]
In this connection, a VOPO 4 .2H 2 O compound containing two water molecules is a substance already known in 1965, and has a V 2 O 5 powder having crystallinity by a known production method. And an aqueous solution of H 3 PO 4 by refluxing for 24 hours or longer are known (G. Ladwig, Z. Anorg. Allg. Chem., 338, p 266 (1965)). However, such a method not only requires a long reaction time of 24 hours or more, but also has a large particle size of 0.01 to 0.25 mm, and thus has been mainly applied as a catalyst material until now. In fact, it is not applied to the positive electrode material of a lithium secondary battery. In addition, “Redox intercalation of alkali metals into vanadyl phosphate dihydrate (A. Chauvel et al., Material Chemistry and Physics, 40, pp.207-211, 1995) and a method for producing VOPO 4 .2H 2 O and the produced VOPO Although the structure of a compound in which an alkali metal ion is inserted between the layers of 4.2H 2 O is disclosed, the VOPO 4 · 2H produced by the reflux method over a long period of time as described above and produced It was revealed that 2 O also has a large particle size of 10 μm or more.
[0006]
Further, as described above, LiCoO 2 as a positive electrode material of a lithium secondary battery that is currently commercialized has a high oxidation-reduction potential and long-term charge / discharge stability, but has a problem that the raw material unit price is high. In addition, there is a demand for the development of a material that can be replaced by a low-cost material having excellent charge / discharge characteristics.
[0007]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
Therefore, the present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned problems of the prior art, and is a new VOPO 4 .2H 2 O having a smaller particle size while greatly reducing the reaction time. The purpose is to provide a manufacturing method.
[0008]
Another object of the present invention is to provide a positive electrode material of a lithium secondary battery manufactured by including VOPO 4 .2H 2 O manufactured by the new manufacturing method as described above.
[0009]

As a result, when VOPO 4 .2H 2 O is produced using an ultrasonic chemical method, the above-described problems are not solved. It came to complete this invention paying attention to being able to solve.
[0010]

At this time, the molar ratio of V 2 O 5 : H 3 PO 4 : H 2 O in the above production method is preferably 1: 40-50: 500-610. In particular, when the molar ratio of phosphoric acid does not exceed 40 of V 2 O 5 , it is difficult for the manufactured VOPO 4 .2H 2 O to have useful characteristics as a positive electrode material for a secondary battery. In the above-described manufacturing method, the intensity of ultrasonic treatment is preferably 70 to 100 W / cm 2, and the time is preferably about 10 to 15 minutes.
[0011]
In order to achieve the above object, the present invention includes a step of mixing the aforementioned V 2 O 5 : H 3 PO 4 : H 2 O at a molar ratio of 1:40 to 50: 500 to 610, and the above mixed solution. VOPO 4 comprising a step of ultrasonically treating, a step of washing the product obtained by sonication and then filtering under reduced pressure, and a step of drying and collecting the product obtained by filtration at room temperature. Provide a method for producing 2H 2 O.
[0012]
Furthermore, the present invention is VOPO 4 · 2H 2 O manufactured by the manufacturing method described above has a very suitable properties to be used as the positive electrode of a lithium secondary battery, VOPO 4 · 2H 2 O Of such uses.
[0013]
Further, since the present invention is to achieve the above object, and V 2 O 5, H 3 PO 4, and H 2 O VOPO 4 · 2H 2 O to a mixed solution was prepared by sonication, and acetylene black, poly Provided is a composition for a positive electrode of a lithium secondary battery in which ethylene tetrachloride is mixed at 60 to 80 wt%: 15 to 25 wt%: 5 to 15 wt%, respectively.
[0014]
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Hereinafter, the configuration of the present invention will be described in more detail through the following examples.
[0015]
Example 1: Production of VOPO 4 · 2H 2 O by sonochemical method First, 2 g of crystalline V 2 O 5 was added to an aqueous solution of H 3 PO 4 (26.75 ml of H 3 PO 4 and distilled water). 108.6 ml of the mixture). At this time, the molar ratio of V 2 O 5 : H 3 PO 4 : H 2 O of each component was 1: 50: 604. When mixing the aforementioned solution, the molar ratio of each component is preferably in the range of 1:40 to 50: 500 to 610, and when the molar ratio of phosphoric acid is 40 or less, as a positive electrode material for a secondary battery. As described above, it is difficult to obtain useful VOPO 4 .2H 2 O.
[0016]
The mixed solution is placed in a titanium alloy horn having a diameter of 13 mm and then subjected to ultrasonic treatment at an intensity of about 70 to 100 W / cm 2 for 10 to 15 minutes using an ultrasonic generator of 600 W and 20 kHz. did. During the sonication process, the temperature of the solution gradually increased to reach a maximum of about 60-80 ° C. About 5 to 7 minutes passed during the ultrasonic process, the red-yellow V 2 O 5 precipitation solution turned into a light yellow colloidal solution, and it was found that VOPO 4 .2H 2 O was produced therefrom.
[0017]
The yellow precipitate after sonication was washed several times with an acetone solvent while filtering under reduced pressure. The filtered powder was dried at room temperature in air to recover VOPO 4 .2H 2 O powder.
[0018]
FIG. 1 shows the X-ray diffraction degree of VOPO 4 .2H 2 O produced according to Example 1 of the present invention. Analysis of each diffraction pick confirmed the formation of orthorhombic 100% pure VOPO 4 .2H 2 O with lattice constants a = 0.62 nm and c = 0.74 nm. In addition, FIG. 2 shows the Fourier transform infrared absorption spectrum of the manufactured VOPO 4 .2H 2 O. The pick in the 1,000 cm −1 region corresponds to a typical VOPO 4 .2H 2 O.

Swagelok test cell using 1M LiPF 6 dissolved in a solvent mixed with ethylene carbonate (EC): dimethyl carbonate (DMC) in a volume ratio of 50:50 as an electrolyte and lithium metal as a negative electrode. And the electrochemical charge / discharge characteristics of the VOPO 4 .2H 2 O electrode were measured under a constant current density.
[0021]

It is the first discharge and charge curve produced. As can be seen in the first discharge curve, it can be seen that the average voltage is maintained at 3.6 V and that a 1 molar ratio of lithium ions is inserted into VOPO 4 .2H 2 O. This corresponds to a discharge capacity of 135 mAh / g. From the initial charge curve, a charge capacity similar to the discharge capacity was obtained, and it was found that lithium ions reacted reversibly. The energy density of VOPO 4 .2H 2 O produced according to an embodiment of the present invention from the discharge capacity and the average voltage was 486 Wh / kg.
