Abstract

PURPOSE:To improve the hydrolysis resistance and self-decomposition resistance of lithium hexafluorophosphate by forming a lithium fluoride layer dn the surface. CONSTITUTION:The stabilized lithium hexafluorophosphate has a lithium fluoride layer on the surface. The stabilization with the lithium fluoride is expected to be caused not only by simple physical surface protection but also by the suppression of the formation of easily hydrolyzable PF5 by the progress of reverse reaction caused by the loss of the dissociation balance of LiPF6 LiF+ PF5 owing to the abnormally high lithium fluoride concentration on the surface. The amount of the lithium fluoride for the stabilization is 0.01-0.5wt.% based on the lithium hexafluorophosphate. The lithium hexafluorophosphate stabilized by this process causes little decomposition even by handling in air having a dew point of -20 deg.C.
