(9)将固体颗粒置于氮气流中,在700-850℃下高温焙烧4-6h,即得磷酸铁锂正极材料。
本发明的有益效果是:
本发明首先将废旧的磷酸铁锂电池回收得到的黑粉进行加碱浸出,除去黑粉中的铝,避免在后续浸出液中形成杂质;而后经洗涤后,采用酸浸,得到含锂、磷、铁、铜、氟、氯的浸出液;通过加入铁粉/铜粉还原浸出液中三价铁,避免直接产生磷酸铁沉淀,吸附氟氯等杂质离子,造成磷酸铁产品氟氯杂质超标,影响后续磷酸铁锂的制备。本发明通过加入磷酸保护金属离子,并采用喷雾热解的方式对浸出液进行处理,得到对应的固体产物,喷雾热解过程中,液滴浓度逐渐升高,首先形成磷酸盐沉淀,残留的氟离子、氯离子则以氟化氢、氯化氢挥发出去,反应原理如下:
Fe2++PO4 3-→Fe3(PO4)2
Cu2++PO4 3-→Cu3(PO4)2
Li++PO4 3-→Li3PO4
喷雾热解产生的固体产物,在浓氨水的作用下,(氨水可与铜离子、亚铁离子络合)在水热条件下进行重结晶,生成磷酸铁锂和还原铜。反应原理如下:
Fe3(PO4)2+6NH3→3[Fe(NH3)2]2++2PO4 3-
Cu3(PO4)2+18NH3→3[Cu(NH3)6]2++2PO4 3-
3NH3·H2O+Li3PO4→3Li++3OH-+3NH4 ++PO4 3-
[Fe(NH3)2]2++PO4 3-+Li+→LiFePO4+2NH3
由于铜与氨的络合能力较强,仍以铜氨离子的形式存在,经水热还原生成亚铜氨离子,随着进一步蒸氨反应的进行,釜内溶液减少,氨浓度降低,铜与残留的锂以氧化亚铜锂的形式掺杂于磷酸铁锂颗粒中。
通过后续进一步烧结,一方面,使水热生成的磷酸铁锂更好的结晶,另一方面,残留的碳源也进一步碳化,形成导电材料,从而提高材料的电导率。由于采用了水热反应得到的材料颗粒度较小,且掺碳量低,具有较高比容量和循环性能。
