Preparation method for lithium iron phosphate cathode material and application thereof

Abstract

The present invention provides a preparation method and application of lithium iron phosphate cathode material, comprising the following steps: (1) Dry mixing an iron source, a phosphorus source, a lithium source, a carbon source and additives and fine grinding to obtain a mixed material; (2) Performing first calcination to the mixed material, and then pulverize to obtain the pulverized material; (3) Perform the second calcination to the pulverized material, while introducing a gasifiable organic carbon source, and then cooling to obtain a lithium iron phosphate cathode material. The invention uses high-efficiency mixing equipment for a one-step mixing and fine grinding of the raw materials, followed by the first calcination and pulverizing, and then performing a second calcination. The gasifiable organic carbon source is used to supplement carbon by forming a carbon coating, so that it has a better carbon coating layer and particle morphology.
