Abstract

A ligand-coated doped lithium iron phosphate, wherein, a general formula of the ligand-coated doped lithium iron phosphate is LiFePO 4 @Mn-T-C/N, wherein T is at least one of zinc, nickel, copper, iron, cobalt, gallium, or chromium.

Claims (12)

1 . A preparation method for a ligand-coated doped lithium iron phosphate, wherein, a general formula of the ligand-coated doped lithium iron phosphate is LiFePO 4 @Mn-T-C/N, and T is at least one of zinc, nickel, copper, iron, cobalt, zirconium, aluminum, gallium, or chromium; and

the preparation method comprises the following steps:

mixing a phosphate fertilizer, an iron source, and a regulator, heating a resulting mixture for reaction, carrying out solid-liquid separation, and taking a solid phase for first calcination, to obtain iron phosphate;

mixing the iron phosphate with a lithium source, a carbon source, and a carbon microsphere conductor, stirring a resulting mixture, and subjecting the mixture to second calcination, to obtain carbon-microsphere-conductor-doped lithium iron phosphate; and

mixing the carbon-microsphere-conductor-doped lithium iron phosphate with a sulfite and a liquid phase ligand, stirring a resulting mixture, and subjecting the mixture to aging, cross-linking, and third calcination, to obtain the ligand-coated doped lithium iron phosphate,

wherein the carbon microsphere conductor comprises carbon nanospheres, 1,6-bis(dimethylamino)hexane, a manganese source, a T source, methacrylamide, and a dispersant; and the T source comprises at least one of soluble chloride salts, nitrates, or sulfates of zinc, nickel, copper, iron, cobalt, zirconium, aluminum, gallium, or chromium.

2 . The preparation method of claim 1 , wherein, the phosphate fertilizer is at least one of ammonium dihydrogen phosphate, diammonium hydrogen phosphate, ammonium phosphate, potassium dihydrogen phosphate, dipotassium hydrogen phosphate, potassium phosphate, or potassium phosphite; and the iron source is at least one of ferric chloride, ferric acetate, ferric nitrate, ferric sulfate, ferric hydroxide, or ferric oxalate.

3 . The preparation method of claim 1 , wherein, the regulator is at least one of octadecyltrimethylammonium bromide, cetyltrimethylammonium bromide, tetradecyltrimethylammonium bromide, or dodecyltrimethylammonium bromide; and the carbon source is at least one of maltose powder, corn syrup, bee honey, glucose powder, or starch.

4 . The preparation method of claim 1 , wherein, the liquid phase ligand is formed by mixing a ligand and a dispersant at a solid-to-liquid ratio of (0.1-0.5) g:(2-10) ml; and the ligand is at least one of 1,6-bis(1H-imidazol-4-carboxamido)-hexane, 1,2-bis(1H-imidazole-4-formamido) ethane, dimethyl 4-hydroxy-(1,1′-biphenyl)-3,5-diformate, or 1,1′,1″-(nitrilotris(benzene-4,1-diacyl))triethanone.

5 . The preparation method of claim 1 , wherein, the T in the ligand-coated doped lithium iron phosphate is at least one of zinc, nickel, copper, cobalt, zirconium and gallium.

6 . The preparation method of claim 1 , wherein, the Mn-T-C/N in the ligand-coated doped lithium iron phosphate is Mn-T supported on C/N.

7 . The preparation method of claim 1 , wherein, the ligand-coated doped lithium iron phosphate is one of LiFePO 4 @Mn—Zn/Ga—C/N, LiFePO 4 @Mn—Cu/Co/Zr—C/N, LiFePO 4 @Mn—Zn/Co—C/N, LiFePO 4 @Mn—Co/Cu—C/N, LiFePO 4 @Mn—Zr/Cu—C/N, LiFePO 4 @Mn—Zr/Cu/Co—C/N, or LiFePO 4 @Mn—Zn/Cu/Co—C/N.
