Abstract

To provide a technique for simply and easily producing a high-purity difluorophosphate and provide a production process of an electrolytic solution using the obtained difluorophosphate, an electrolytic solution and a secondary battery. A process for producing a difluorophosphate, comprising the following step (1) or (2): (1) reacting (A) at least one member selected from the group consisting of oxoacids, oxoacid anhydrides and oxyhalides of phosphorus with (B) a hexafluorophosphate in the presence of hydrogen fluoride, or (2) reacting at least one halide selected from the group consisting of alkali metal halides, alkaline earth metal halides, aluminum halides and onium halides with difluorophosphoric acid in the presence of a hexafluorophosphate. Also, a nonaqueous electrolytic solution containing the obtained difluorophosphate, and a nonaqueous electrolytic secondary battery containing the nonaqueous electrolytic solution.

Claims (9)

1. A process for producing a difluorophosphate, comprising:

(1) reacting (A) at least one member selected from the group consisting of an oxoacid of phosphorous, an oxoacid anhydride of phosphorous and an oxyhalide of phosphorus with (B) a hexafluorophosphate in the presence of hydrogen fluoride.

2. The production process of a difluorophosphate as claimed in claim 1 , wherein in said (1) reacting, (C) at least one member selected from the group consisting of a halide, a carbonate, a borate, a phosphate, a hydroxide, and an oxide of an alkali metal, an alkaline earth metal, aluminum or an onium is reacted together with (A) and (B) in the presence of hydrogen fluoride.

3. The production process of a difluorophosphate as claimed in claim 1 , wherein in said (1) reacting, (A) is at least one member selected from the group consisting of phosphoric acid, diphosphorus pentoxide, phosphoryl trichloride, diphosphoryl chloride and pyrophosphoric acid.

4. The production process of a difluorophosphate as claimed in claim 1 , wherein in said (1) reacting, the hydrogen fluoride is in the form of anhydrous hydrofluoric acid or a mixture of anhydrous hydrofluoric acid and an organic solvent.

5. The production process of a difluorophosphate as claimed in claim 2 , wherein in said (1) reacting, (C) is at least one member selected from the group consisting of a halide, a carbonate, a borate, a phosphate, a hydroxide and an oxide of alkali metal.

6. The production process of a difluorophosphate as claimed in claim 5 , wherein in said (1) reacting, the alkali metal of (C) is lithium.

7. The production process of a difluorophosphate as claimed in claim 6 , wherein in said (1) reacting, (C) is at least either one of lithium carbonate and lithium fluoride.

8. The production process of a difluorophosphate as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the hexafluorophosphate is at least one member selected from the group consisting of lithium hexafluorophosphate, sodium hexafluorophosphate, potassium hexafluorophosphate and ammonium hexafluorophosphate.
