Problems solved by technology

Zhang et al. used ammonium dihydrogen phosphate and iron oxide as precursors and acetylene as carbon source gas to synthesize lithium iron phosphate / carbon nanofiber composites by chemical vapor deposition (J. Mater. Sci. Technol., 2011, 27 (11 ): 1001.), the carbon distribution of the obtained composite material is relatively uniform, and its electrical conductivity is also significantly improved, but after heat treatment under high-temperature reducing atmosphere conditions, a small amount of Fe2P2O7 impurities are generated in the obtained composite material, which affects the iron phosphate Electrochemical properties of lithium materials

Abstract

The invention discloses a surface carbon coating method of a lithium iron phosphate positive electrode material. The uniform carbon coating on the surface of the lithium iron phosphate material is realized at a low thermal treatment temperature by a laser chemical vapor deposition method for overcoming the shortcomings of an existing coating technology of the lithium iron phosphate material; in the synthesis process, the surface of the lithium iron phosphate material is subjected to uniform carbon coating treatment by selecting appropriate laser wavelength, carbon source gas proportion, gas flow rate and thermal treatment temperature under the dynamic condition of the lithium iron phosphate powder material; moreover, because the temperature is low in the coating process, the generation of an iron phosphide impurity phase is prevented. The obtained lithium iron phosphate material is pure in phase; the surface coating layer is uniform and complete; the lithium iron phosphate positive electrode material has excellent multiplying power charging and discharging performance.

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the fields of preparation of electrochemical materials and new energy sources, in particular to a surface carbon coating method of a lithium iron phosphate cathode material. Background technique [0002] As a green new energy technology, lithium-ion battery has very important and broad application prospects. Lithium iron phosphate has the advantages of abundant raw material sources, low price, high specific capacity, excellent high-temperature cycle performance and high safety performance, and is a very promising positive electrode material for power batteries. However, the lithium iron phosphate material itself has the problem of low ion conductivity and electronic conductivity, and its performance is poor when it is charged and discharged at a high rate. At present, the modification of lithium iron phosphate materials mainly includes grain refinement, bulk phase doping, surface coating and other methods, which can effectivel...
