Abstract

The invention discloses a preparation method of lithium iron phosphate, a material for positive electrode of lithium ion battery. The preparation method comprises the steps that: ferric iron compound, phosphorus compound and lithium compound are taken as raw materials and mixed according to molar ratio of the contained iron, phosphorus and lithium 1:1:1; the obtained mixture is evenly mixed under room temperature, and then mechanical activation is carried out; after 0.5-20 hours of activation, a reducing agent is added with the molar ratio of the reducing agent and the iron compound is 1:1-1:6; under normal temperature and pressure, the ferric iron is reduced by the reducing agent, so as to produce fine particles of LiFePO4 which is then sent into non oxidizing gas to be heated to 300-700 DEG C and calcined for 2-20 hours under constant temperature; finally, the lithium iron phosphate is obtained. The preparation method of lithium iron phosphate adopts low-temperature method to process the amorphous lithium iron phosphate so as to produce the lithium iron phosphate with excellent performance, which greatly reduces energy consumption and cost.
