Abstract

The present invention relates to a lithium iron phosphate electrode material having a three-dimensional hierarchical structure, and a preparation method thereof. The preparation method comprises: 1) sequentially adding a surfactant and a phosphorus source compound to a solvent, and uniformly stirring for use; 2) dispersing an iron source compound in a solvent, and uniformly stirring for use; 3) dispersing a lithium source compound in a solvent, and uniformly stirring for use; 4) mixing and stirring the solutions or suspensions of the phosphorus source compound, the iron source compound and the lithium source compound, and loading into a reaction kettle; 5) carrying out a reaction under a hydrothermal or solvothermal condition, and washing and drying the obtained product to obtain lithium iron phosphate with various hierarchical structures; and 6) calcining to obtain the hierarchical structure lithium iron phosphate material having high crystallinity. According to the present invention, the preparation method is the wet chemical method for preparing the lithium ion battery positive electrode material lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4) by adopting the precursor directly obtained through the hydrothermal or solvothermal reaction, and the surface activity structure-oriented method is adopted to design and construct the electrode material having high specific surface area and excellent electrochemical property.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a three-dimensional hierarchical lithium iron phosphate electrode material with excellent electrochemical performance and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] At present, the most widely used anode materials for lithium-ion batteries are mainly transition metal oxides of lithium, such as lithium cobalt oxide (LiCoO 2 ), lithium nickelate (LiNiO 2 ) and spinel lithium manganate (LiMn 2 o 4 )Wait. Currently mass-produced lithium-ion batteries mainly use LiCoO 2 As a positive electrode material, its energy density is high and its performance is stable, but because cobalt is a rare resource, lithium cobalt oxide is expensive, and its safety is not good, and it is easy to cause combustion or explosion accidents, so it is used in lithium-ion batteries, especially power lithium batteries. Applications in ion batteries are limited. LiNiO 2 It has the advantages of high specific capacity and abundant resour...
