制造电化学活性材料的方法
技术领域
本发明涉及一种制造电化学活性材料的方法,特别是设计一种循环连续式无碳还原-低温合成制备电化学活性材料的方法。
背景技术
优秀的锂离子电池至少应具有以下优点:高而稳定的工作电压、高的比能量、高的能量密度、长的循环寿命以及无记忆效应等。 SONY 公司于 1990 年推出的商品化锂离子电池,基本满足上述条件,因此,这种锂离子电池得以迅速推广,成为二次电池市场上的主流产品。目前移动电话、笔记本电脑和其它一些便携式电气设备大多使用锂离子电池作为电源,而且对它的需求还将持续增长.将来,电动汽车和大型储能电池都可能使用锂离子电池,这使锂离子电池的理论和应用研究进入加速发展的阶段。
锂离子电池中使用的材料主要包括正极材料 ( 含活性物质和导电物质等 ) 、负极材料、集流体和隔膜等。目前,商品化的锂离子电池中使用的正极活性物质仍然是以 LiCoO2 为主,这种正极活性物质具有优异的电化学性能。然而,钴资源稀少、昂贵、有毒、生物学安全性差,不适合大规模的应用。因此,研究人员一直致力于研究新的正极活性物质,如磷酸亚铁锂 (LiFePO4) 、磷酸钒锂( Li3V2(PO4)3 )等。
磷酸亚铁锂(LiFePO4),它具有稳定的晶体结构,安全性好,循环性能特别好,不使用战略资源镍钴、价格低、材料无毒环保,由于其晶体结构稳定,耐过充和过放的能力强,被公认为制造高安全、低成本、长寿命的锂电池的最佳正极材料。磷酸钒锂(Li3V2(PO4)3)是一种高性能锂离子电池正极材料。它具有较高放电平台;较高的充放电容量,理论容量为197mAh/g,相比于其他锂离子电池正极材料, 具有较大能量密度,良好的安全性能,并且价格低廉,被认为是未来最有前途的锂离子电池正极材料之一。
专利 CN 101172597A 提出了采用铁粉作为铁源,但采用磷酸二氢铵合成,其也排放污染气体。专利 CN101172599 提出采用碳包覆的方法还原氧化铁与磷酸组成的前驱体,合成磷酸亚铁锂,但是此制备技术前期工艺较为复杂,成本较高,且碳包覆无法达到均一稳定,合成产生大量二氧化碳,排放至大气中造成污染。
专利申请 CN101106194 于 2008 月 1 月 16 日公开了一种锂离子电池正极材料磷酸钒锂的制备方法,制备的磷酸钒锂基体,基体外包覆有碳材料,利用纳米颗粒二次成型液相法合成正极材料磷酸钒锂,简化了操作程序,但液相合成造成批次稳定性差,生产成本较高。
磷酸亚铁锂材料目前工业化生产采用的是湿法混合和喷雾干燥的方法,随后进行高温合成。此工艺,前期工序繁琐,成本较高,过程控制不稳定,造成批次性差异大,物料混合不均匀导致烧结反应不完全,消耗大量电能,生产效率低等问题。本发明由此而来。
发明内容
