Problems solved by technology

However, there are weaknesses such as poor electrochemical performance, wide particle size distribution, and low tap density.
If the tap density is generally only 1.0g / cm 3 About, far lower than lithium cobalt oxide (2.8g / cm 3 ) and lithium manganese oxide (2.2g / cm 3 ) level; and lithium iron phosphate has low conductivity and poor high-rate charge and discharge performance, which makes the practical application of the material more difficult
[0005] In order to improve the performance of lithium iron phosphate, it is generally doped, such as lithium doping (CN101540400), oxygen doping (CN1772604), transition element doping (CN1785799), rare earth doping (CN1785800, CN1830764) , phosphorus doping (CN1785823, CN101037195), etc., although the above method can partially improve the performance of lithium iron phosphate, it is not easy to realize large-scale industrial production
