Abstract
The invention discloses a nanometer lithium carbonate and a preparation method thereof, wherein the preparation method of the nanometer lithium carbonate comprises the specific steps of introducing a high-polarity organic solvent into a reaction system of carbonate and lithium salt, carrying out reaction crystallization to obtain a precipitate, washing, centrifuging and drying the precipitate to obtain the nanometer lithium carbonate, wherein the high-polarity organic solvent comprises at least one of ethylene glycol, propylene glycol, glycerol, butanetriol, dimethyl sulfoxide, diethyl sulfoxide and benzyl benzene sulfoxide, the high-polarity organic solvent is introduced into the reaction system of the carbonate and the lithium salt, and because the lithium carbonate is insoluble in the high-polarity organic solvent in the system, therefore, the introduction of the high-polarity organic solvent can reduce the solubility of the lithium carbonate and increase the supersaturation degree, thereby increasing the nucleation rate of the lithium carbonate crystal, leading the lithium carbonate crystal to be rapidly separated out, and obtaining the nano lithium carbonate with high purity, low crystallinity and uniform size; the nanometer lithium carbonate has a particle size of 50-500 nm and a BET specific surface area of 13-30 m2/g。
Description
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of preparation of lithium carbonate, and particularly relates to nano lithium carbonate and a preparation method thereof.
Background
Lithium carbonate is extremely widely used industrially, and is often used as a raw material for other lithium salts such as lithium chloride, lithium bromide, lithium molybdate, lithium hydroxide, lithium oxide, and the like; the lithium ion battery has wide application in the industries of enamel, special glass, ceramics, enamel, electronic components, atomic energy industry and the like, and is a necessity for preparing optical materials, magnetic materials, electronic information materials and various fine lithium salts; lithium carbonate also plays an important role in the treatment of psychiatric diseases such as mania.
With the development of the times, 5G and new energy vehicles begin to be popularized, and the consumption of secondary batteries increases day by day, so that the consumption of lithium carbonate in the battery industry is greatly increased, the lithium carbonate can be used as a raw material for preparing an electrode material of a lithium iron phosphate battery and can also be used as a raw material for preparing other lithium battery electrodes, even the lithium carbonate cannot participate in the preparation process of electrolyte, and the film forming performance of the battery can be improved by adding the lithium carbonate into the electrolyte, so that the cycle performance and the low-temperature discharge performance of the battery are improved. The most mature preparation process of the lithium iron phosphate as the battery anode material at present adopts a solid-phase sintering mode of iron phosphate, lithium carbonate and an organic carbon source; and whether the lithium carbonate, which is one of the raw materials, has low crystallinity and size uniformity or not will affect the uniformity of the prepared lithium iron phosphate, the migration rate and diffusion rate of lithium ions, and further affect the electrical properties.
The large consumption of the lithium source directly brings a series of problems of lithium resource crisis, supply guarantee, environmental damage and the like, and the development of a high-efficiency, green and low-cost waste battery recovery technology is an effective method for solving the major problems. The traditional recovery processes such as wet recovery process, dry recovery process and biological recovery process can not meet the requirement for recovering and extracting lithium, and secondary pollution and resource waste are often caused in the recovery process. Therefore, it is important to improve the conventional lithium resource recovery process and extract and recover the lithium resource efficiently to convert the lithium resource into an industrial nano lithium carbonate source with low crystallinity and uniform size.
CN109942009A discloses a preparation method of battery-grade lithium carbonate, which is to crush industrial lithium carbonate to 100 meshesThen stirring and mixing with water to prepare lithium carbonate slurry, then introducing the lithium carbonate slurry into a packed tower, and mixing with high-purity CO2And (3) carrying out countercurrent contact, then uniformly mixing with a sulfate radical complexing agent, and finally heating and decomposing in a tower to obtain the lithium carbonate. The method for preparing lithium carbonate starts from crushing industrial lithium carbonate, reacts in a packing tower to generate lithium bicarbonate, and decomposes the lithium bicarbonate to generate lithium carbonate, the process flow for instantly recycling the lithium carbonate finished product in the tower is complex, the requirement on the packing tower is high, the finally obtained lithium carbonate finished product needs to be washed by sodium hydroxide solution with the pH value of 12-12.5 and deionized water, and the washing frequency is not less than two times. The whole process is extremely complicated, the production cost is too high, and the added complexing agent also influences the purity of the lithium carbonate.
CN102408119A discloses a method for preparing lithium carbonate ultrafine powder by crystallization reaction, which mainly comprises introducing one or more organic reagents selected from methanol, ethanol, propanol, butanol and acetone as reaction solvent into a water-soluble lithium salt system, and adding a carbonate system or carbon dioxide to crystallize and precipitate lithium carbonate. Although the method is simple to operate, the selected alcohol or ketone leaching agents such as ethanol and the like have the characteristics of inflammability and volatility, and are very easy to bring about the problems of danger and environmental pollution. In addition, the secondary nucleation particle size of lithium carbonate crystals prepared by using the organic solvent-out agent is still in a micron level, does not meet the actual requirement that the particle size of battery-level lithium carbonate is in a nanometer level, can meet the industrial application condition only by carrying out post-treatment such as ball milling and the like, and is inconvenient for industrialization.
Therefore, how to further improve the lithium carbonate recovery process to convert the lithium carbonate into nano lithium carbonate with high purity, low crystallinity and uniform size still remains to be solved.

The invention will be further described with reference to the following examples and the accompanying drawings, but the scope of the invention is not limited thereto.
The experimental procedures in the following examples are conventional unless otherwise specified. The test materials used in the following examples were purchased from a conventional reagent store unless otherwise specified.
Unless otherwise defined, technical or scientific terms used herein shall have the ordinary meaning as understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention belongs.
Example 1
The embodiment provides a preparation method of nano lithium carbonate, which comprises the following steps:
preparing a reaction system of sodium carbonate and lithium sulfate with the total volume of 100mL in a 250 mL reaction vessel, wherein the concentrations of the sodium carbonate and the lithium sulfate are both 0.1mol/L, and adjusting the pH value of the system to be 11;
adding 50 mL of high-polarity organic solvent dimethyl sulfoxide into a reaction system of sodium carbonate and lithium sulfate at one time, stirring to uniformly mix the solution, quickly transferring the solution into a centrifuge tube after two minutes for centrifugal treatment (the rotating speed is 5000 r/min), pouring out supernatant obtained by centrifugation, collecting precipitate obtained by centrifugation, washing the precipitate with a small amount of deionized water for three times, and finally drying the precipitate in a vacuum oven at the drying temperature of 40 ℃ for 24 hours to obtain the nano lithium carbonate.
Because sodium carbonate, lithium sulfate and lithium carbonate are not dissolved in dimethyl sulfoxide, and the solubility of lithium carbonate is minimum, lithium carbonate can be quickly separated out after dimethyl sulfoxide is introduced into a reaction system, and dimethyl sulfoxide plays a role in dissolution and separation and also plays a role in dispersing lithium carbonate crystals;
the experimental results show that: the specific surface area of the lithium carbonate prepared in the embodiment can reach 13m2(ii) in terms of/g and a uniform particle size dimension of about 500nm, as shown in FIG. 1. The method has the advantages of simple process flow, low implementation cost, mild reaction conditions, recovery yield of about 70.0 percent and purity of the product nano lithium carbonate which is washed and purified to be more than 99 percent.
Example 2
The embodiment provides a preparation method of nano lithium carbonate, which comprises the following steps:
preparing a reaction system of sodium carbonate and lithium sulfate with the total volume of 100mL in a 250 mL reaction vessel, wherein the concentrations of the sodium carbonate and the lithium sulfate are both 0.1mol/L, and adjusting the pH value of the system to be 11;
adding 100mL of high-polarity organic solvent dimethyl sulfoxide into a reaction system of sodium carbonate and lithium sulfate at one time, stirring to uniformly mix the solution, quickly transferring the solution into a centrifuge tube after two minutes for centrifugal treatment (the rotating speed is 5000 r/min), pouring out supernatant obtained by centrifugation, collecting precipitate obtained by centrifugation, washing the precipitate with a small amount of deionized water for three times, and finally placing the precipitate in a vacuum oven for drying at the drying temperature of 40 ℃ for 24 hours to obtain the nano lithium carbonate.
Because sodium carbonate, lithium sulfate and lithium carbonate are not dissolved in dimethyl sulfoxide, and the solubility of lithium carbonate is minimum, lithium carbonate can be quickly separated out after dimethyl sulfoxide is introduced into a reaction system, and a elution agent, namely dimethyl sulfoxide, plays a role in elution and also plays a role in dispersing lithium carbonate crystals;
the experimental results show that: the specific surface area of the lithium carbonate prepared in the example can reach 22.7m2The morphology is shown in FIG. 2, and in comparison with example 1 and example 2, the volume size of lithium carbonate is not changed significantly after the addition amount of dimethyl sulfoxide is increased, and the particle size is still uniform, and is about 130 nm. Meanwhile, the recovery yield is improved to about 93.2 percent, and the purity of the product can reach more than 99 percent after washing and purification.
In example 1-2, the volume ratio of the highly polar organic solvent to the reaction system of carbonate and lithium salt was 0.5:1 and 1: 1.
The different proportions of the high-polarity organic solvent and the system water solution and the different mixing and dissolving degrees of the high-polarity organic solvent and the system water solution lead to different precipitation speeds and different crystallization qualities of lithium carbonate crystals, thereby causing different crystallinity and different particle sizes; the supersaturation degree of the lithium carbonate is increased by adjusting the ratio of the high-polarity organic solvent to the aqueous solution of the reaction system of the carbonate and the lithium salt, so that the lithium carbonate precipitate with low crystallinity and uniform size is rapidly nucleated and separated out.
Example 3
The embodiment provides a preparation method of nano lithium carbonate, which comprises the following steps:
preparing a reaction system of sodium carbonate and lithium sulfate with the total volume of 100mL in a 250 mL reaction vessel, wherein the concentrations of the sodium carbonate and the lithium sulfate are both 0.2mol/L, and adjusting the pH value of the system to be 11;
adding 100mL of high-polarity organic solvent dimethyl sulfoxide into a reaction system of sodium carbonate and lithium sulfate at one time, stirring to uniformly mix the solution, quickly transferring the solution into a centrifuge tube after two minutes for centrifugal treatment (the rotating speed is 5000 r/min), pouring out supernatant obtained by centrifugation, collecting precipitate obtained by centrifugation, washing the precipitate with a small amount of deionized water for three times, and finally placing the precipitate in a vacuum oven for drying at the drying temperature of 40 ℃ for 24 hours to obtain the nano lithium carbonate.
Because sodium carbonate, lithium sulfate and lithium carbonate are not dissolved in dimethyl sulfoxide, and the solubility of lithium carbonate is minimum, lithium carbonate can be quickly separated out after dimethyl sulfoxide is introduced into a reaction system, and the dimethyl sulfoxide introduced into the system not only plays a role in dissolution, but also plays a role in dispersion;
the experimental results show that: the specific surface area of the lithium carbonate prepared in the embodiment can reach 25 m2The shape of the lithium carbonate nanoparticles is shown in fig. 3, in comparative example 2, the addition amount of dimethyl sulfoxide is kept unchanged, and after the concentrations of sodium carbonate and lithium sulfate are increased, the particle size of the obtained lithium carbonate nanoparticles is uniform and is about 100 nm; the XRD spectrogram shows that the nano crystallinity of the lithium carbonate is basically kept unchanged (as shown in figure 5), the recovery yield is further improved to 94.2%, and the purity of the product after washing and purification can reach more than 96%.
Example 4
The embodiment provides a preparation method of nano lithium carbonate, which comprises the following steps:
preparing a reaction system of sodium carbonate and lithium sulfate with the total volume of 100mL in a 250 mL reaction vessel, wherein the concentrations of the sodium carbonate and the lithium sulfate are both 0.4mol/L, and adjusting the pH value of the system to be 11;
adding 100mL of high-polarity organic solvent dimethyl sulfoxide into a reaction system of sodium carbonate and lithium sulfate at one time, stirring to uniformly mix the solution, quickly transferring the solution into a centrifuge tube after two minutes for centrifugal treatment (the rotating speed is 5000 r/min), pouring out supernatant obtained by centrifugation, collecting precipitate obtained by centrifugation, washing the precipitate with a small amount of deionized water for three times, and finally placing the precipitate in a vacuum oven for drying at the drying temperature of 40 ℃ for 24 hours to obtain the nano lithium carbonate.
Because sodium carbonate, lithium sulfate and lithium carbonate are not dissolved in dimethyl sulfoxide, and the solubility of lithium carbonate is minimum, lithium carbonate can be quickly separated out after dimethyl sulfoxide is introduced into a reaction system, and a elution agent, namely dimethyl sulfoxide, plays a role in elution and also plays a role in dispersing lithium carbonate crystals;
the experimental results show that: the morphology of the lithium carbonate prepared in the embodiment still maintains a smaller particle size, and compared with the lithium carbonate prepared in the embodiment 2, after the concentrations of the sodium carbonate and the lithium sulfate are increased, the specific surface area of the lithium carbonate can reach 30 m2The particle size is still uniform and is about 50nm without obvious change of the size, but the crystallinity of the lithium carbonate nano particles is greatly reduced, the recovery yield is greatly improved and is about 98.2 percent, and the purity of the product can reach more than 95 percent after washing and purification.
In examples 2-4, the carbonate concentration was 0.1-0.4mol/L, i.e., 100-400 mM. The higher the carbonate concentration is, the higher the carbonate ion concentration is, the higher the supersaturation degree of the lithium carbonate after the addition of the dissolving agent is, so that the lithium carbonate is easier to crystallize and separate out; thus, the concentration of carbonate affects the recovery yield, with higher carbonate concentrations giving higher recovery yields. However, when the carbonate concentration exceeds 0.4mol/L, the addition of the elution reagent causes impurities such as sodium sulfate, thereby lowering the purity of the lithium carbonate to be obtained. The embodiment of the invention adopts carbonate with the concentration of 0.1-0.4mol/L, and is determined by comprehensively considering various factors such as recovery yield, purity and the like.
In examples 2 to 4, the concentration of the lithium salt was 0.1 to 0.4mol/L, i.e., 100-400 mM. The higher the concentration of the lithium salt is, the higher the concentration of lithium ions is, the higher the supersaturation degree of the lithium carbonate is after the solvent is added, so that the lithium carbonate is easier to crystallize and precipitate; therefore, the concentration of the lithium salt affects the recovery yield, and the higher the concentration of the lithium salt, the higher the recovery yield. However, when the concentration of the lithium salt exceeds 0.4mol/L, the addition of the elution reagent causes impurities such as sodium sulfate, thereby lowering the purity of the lithium carbonate to be obtained. The embodiment of the invention adopts the lithium salt with the concentration of 0.1-0.4mol/L, and is determined by comprehensively considering various factors such as recovery yield, purity and the like. After the concentration of the sodium carbonate and the lithium sulfate is improved, the recovery yield of the lithium carbonate is effectively increased, and meanwhile, a simple process flow and mild reaction conditions are kept, so that the direct industrialization is facilitated.

adding 100mL of high-polarity organic solvent dimethyl sulfoxide into a reaction system of sodium carbonate, lithium chloride and lithium hydroxide at one time, stirring to uniformly mix the solution, quickly transferring the solution into a centrifuge tube after two minutes for centrifugal treatment (the rotating speed is 5000 r/min), pouring out supernatant obtained by centrifugation, collecting precipitate obtained by centrifugation, washing the precipitate with a small amount of deionized water for three times, and finally drying the precipitate in a vacuum oven at the drying temperature of 40 ℃ for 24 hours to obtain the nano lithium carbonate.
Because sodium carbonate, lithium chloride, lithium hydroxide and lithium carbonate are not dissolved in dimethyl sulfoxide, and the solubility of lithium carbonate is minimum, lithium carbonate can be quickly separated out after dimethyl sulfoxide is introduced into a reaction system, and a solvent-out agent, namely dimethyl sulfoxide, has a dissolving-out function and also has a dispersing function on lithium carbonate crystals;
the experimental results show that: in the embodiment, when the reaction system of the sodium carbonate, the lithium chloride and the lithium hydroxide is adopted to prepare the nano lithium carbonate, the specific surface area of the nano lithium carbonate can reach 20m2The volume size of the lithium carbonate is not obviously changed, the particle size is still uniform and is about 135nm, meanwhile, the high recovery yield can be still maintained, and is about 91.7%, and the purity of the product can reach more than 99% after washing and purification.

The embodiment provides a preparation method of nano lithium carbonate, which comprises the following steps:
preparing a reaction system of potassium carbonate and sodium bicarbonate with a total volume of 100mL and lithium sulfate in a 250 mL reaction container, wherein the final concentration of carbonate ions added in the potassium carbonate and the sodium bicarbonate with equal volume is 0.4mol/L, the concentration of lithium sulfate is 0.4mol/L, and the pH value of the system is adjusted to be 11;
adding 10 mL of high-polarity organic solvent-out agent ethylene glycol and benzyl benzene sulfoxide (the volume ratio of the ethylene glycol to the benzyl benzene sulfoxide is 1: 1) into a reaction system of potassium carbonate, sodium bicarbonate and lithium sulfate at one time, stirring to uniformly mix the solution, quickly transferring the solution into a centrifuge tube after two minutes for centrifugal treatment (the rotating speed is 5000 r/min), pouring out the supernatant obtained by centrifugation, collecting the precipitate obtained by centrifugation, washing with a small amount of deionized water for three times, and finally placing in a vacuum oven for drying at the drying temperature of 40 ℃ for 24 hours to obtain the nano lithium carbonate.
Because the potassium carbonate, the sodium bicarbonate, the lithium sulfate and the lithium carbonate are not dissolved in the ethylene glycol and the benzyl benzene sulfoxide, and the solubility of the lithium carbonate is minimum, the lithium carbonate can be quickly separated out after the ethylene glycol and the benzyl benzene sulfoxide are introduced into a reaction system, and the elution agents, namely the ethylene glycol and the benzyl benzene sulfoxide, not only play a role in elution, but also play a role in dispersing lithium carbonate crystals;

Example 7
The embodiment provides a preparation method of nano lithium carbonate, which comprises the following steps:
preparing a reaction system of potassium carbonate and sodium bicarbonate, lithium chloride and lithium hydroxide with a total volume of 100mL in a 250 mL reaction vessel, wherein the potassium carbonate and the sodium bicarbonate are added in equal volumes, the final concentration of carbonate ions is 0.1mol/L, the lithium chloride and the lithium hydroxide are added in equal volumes, the final concentration of lithium ions is 0.1mol/L, and the pH value of the system is adjusted to be 11;
adding 100mL of a mixed solution of high-polarity organic solvent glycerol and diethyl sulfoxide (the volume ratio of glycerol to diethyl sulfoxide in the mixed solution is 1: 1) into a reaction system of potassium carbonate, sodium bicarbonate, lithium chloride and lithium hydroxide at one time, stirring to uniformly mix the solution, quickly transferring the solution into a centrifuge tube after two minutes for centrifugal treatment (the rotating speed is 5000 r/min), pouring out the supernatant obtained by centrifugation, collecting the precipitate obtained by centrifugation, washing with a small amount of deionized water for three times, and finally drying in a vacuum oven at the drying temperature of 40 ℃ for 24 hours to obtain the nano lithium carbonate.
Because the potassium carbonate, the sodium bicarbonate, the lithium chloride and the lithium hydroxide are not dissolved in the mixed solution of the glycerol and the diethyl sulfoxide, and the solubility of the lithium carbonate is minimum, the lithium carbonate can be quickly separated out after the mixed solution of the glycerol and the diethyl sulfoxide is introduced into a reaction system, and a elution agent of the mixed solution of the glycerol and the diethyl sulfoxide plays a role in elution and also plays a role in dispersing lithium carbonate crystals;
the experimental results show that: in the embodiment, the specific surface area of the nano lithium carbonate prepared by adopting the reaction system of potassium carbonate and sodium bicarbonate, lithium chloride and lithium hydroxide can reach 19m2And/g, when the mixed solution of glycerol and diethyl sulfoxide is used as a elution agent, the volume size of the lithium carbonate is not obviously changed, the particle size is still uniform and is about 148nm, meanwhile, the recovery yield can still be kept high and is about 91.3%, and the purity of the product can reach more than 99% after washing and purification.
Example 8
The embodiment provides a preparation method of nano lithium carbonate, which comprises the following steps:
preparing a reaction system of sodium carbonate and lithium sulfate with the total volume of 100mL in a 250 mL reaction vessel, wherein the concentrations of the sodium carbonate and the lithium sulfate are both 0.02mol/L, and adjusting the pH value of the system to be 11;
adding 500 mL of high-polarity organic solvent dimethyl sulfoxide into a reaction system of sodium carbonate and lithium sulfate at one time, stirring to uniformly mix the solution, quickly transferring the solution into a centrifuge tube after two minutes for centrifugal treatment (the rotating speed is 5000 r/min), pouring out supernatant obtained by centrifugation, collecting precipitate obtained by centrifugation, washing the precipitate with a small amount of deionized water for three times, and finally placing the precipitate in a vacuum oven for drying at the drying temperature of 40 ℃ for 24 hours to obtain the nano lithium carbonate.
Because sodium carbonate, lithium sulfate and lithium carbonate are not dissolved in dimethyl sulfoxide, and the solubility of lithium carbonate is minimum, lithium carbonate can be quickly separated out after dimethyl sulfoxide is introduced into a reaction system, and dimethyl sulfoxide plays a role in dissolution and separation and also plays a role in dispersing lithium carbonate crystals;
the experimental results show that: the specific surface area of the lithium carbonate prepared in the embodiment can reach 13.3m2(ii) a/g and a uniform particle size dimension of about 450 nm. The method has the advantages of simple process flow, low implementation cost, mild reaction conditions, recovery yield of about 68.0 percent and purity of the product nano lithium carbonate which is washed and purified to be more than 99 percent.
In an embodiment, the carbonate salt comprises at least one of sodium carbonate, potassium carbonate, and sodium bicarbonate; the lithium salt includes at least one of lithium sulfate, lithium chloride, and lithium hydroxide.
According to the preparation method of the nano lithium carbonate provided by the embodiment of the invention, no scaling phenomenon is generated in the whole preparation process, no damage is caused to a reaction container, the prepared lithium carbonate sample is easy to obtain, and the lithium carbonate sample can be directly obtained through centrifugation or filtration separation; and the recovery yield is high, the process flow is simple, the reaction condition is mild (room temperature is 20 ℃), the implementation cost is low, and the method is convenient for industrial application.
The nano lithium carbonate prepared by the embodiment of the invention has high recovery yield and large specific surface (the BET specific surface area can reach 13-30 m)2Per gram), high purity (more than 95 percent), low crystallinity, nanometer grade (the grain diameter is 50-500 nm), uniform grain diameter and the like.
Comparative example 1
In this comparative example, no elution agent was added to the reaction system of sodium carbonate and lithium sulfate, and as a result, no lithium carbonate was produced, as follows:
in a 250 mL reaction vessel, preparing a reaction system of sodium carbonate and lithium sulfate with a total volume of 100mL, wherein the concentrations of the sodium carbonate and the lithium sulfate are both 0.1mol/L, stirring to uniformly mix the solution, and adding no eluent, so that no lithium carbonate is separated out.
This is because the critical saturation concentration of lithium carbonate at room temperature (20 ℃ C.) is about 0.117mol/L, and under such conditions, the actual concentration of lithium carbonate is 0.1mol/L which is lower than the critical saturation concentration thereof, so that it cannot be precipitated. Therefore, the aim of effectively recovering the lithium carbonate cannot be achieved under the condition of not introducing a dissolution agent, and the preparation of the high-activity nano lithium carbonate with low crystallinity and uniform size cannot be further realized.
Comparative example 2
The comparative example provides a method for preparing lithium carbonate by adding ethanol as a low-polarity elution agent, which comprises the following steps:
in a 250 mL reaction vessel, a reaction system of sodium carbonate and lithium sulfate with a total volume of 100mL is prepared, wherein the concentrations of the sodium carbonate and the lithium sulfate are both 0.1 mol/L.
Adding 100mL of solvent ethanol into a reaction system of sodium carbonate and lithium sulfate at one time, stirring to uniformly mix the solution, quickly transferring the solution into a centrifuge tube after two minutes for centrifugal treatment (the rotating speed is 5000 r/min), pouring out supernatant obtained by centrifugation, collecting precipitate obtained by centrifugation, washing the precipitate with a small amount of deionized water for three times, and finally drying the precipitate in a vacuum oven at the drying temperature of 40 ℃ for 24 hours to obtain the nano lithium carbonate.
The experimental results show that: although the low-polarity ethanol is used as a solvent out agent, the lithium carbonate can be separated out, but the experimental result shows that the lithium carbonate product obtained by the method has poor uniformity of particle size scale, wide distribution range from hundreds of nanometers to micron-sized, and small specific surface area (6.0 m)2(g) (as shown in fig. 4), which does not meet the requirement that the battery-grade lithium carbonate is nano-scale particles with uniform particle size; under the same condition, the high-polarity dimethyl sulfoxide is used as the organic solvent, so that the product with uniform particle size (about 130 nm) and large specific surface area (22.7 m) can be quickly obtained2/g) and nano-grade lithium carbonate with low crystallinity completely meet the requirement of battery-grade lithium carbonate, and the recovery yield is higher and can reach more than 93 percent (see table 1). In addition, the crystallization rate of lithium carbonate particles obtained by adopting ethanol as a solvent is slow, and the crystallinity is obviously improved(see FIG. 5), the recovery yield was significantly low (about 63.8%).
TABLE 1 comparison of lithium carbonate Properties with different elution Agents
| Elution reagent | Recovery yield | Particle size | Degree of crystallinity | Specific surface area | Rate of crystallization |
| Ethanol | 63.8% | Several hundred nanometers to micrometers | Height of | 6.0 m2/g | Slow |
| Dimethyl sulfoxide | 93.2% | 130 nm | Is low in | 22.7 m2/g | Fast-acting toy |
In addition, the low-polarity ethanol is used as a leaching agent, has the obvious defects of easy volatilization, low boiling point, poor thermal stability and high risk, and is inconvenient for industrialization; and the high-polarity dimethyl sulfoxide is used as a dissolving out agent, so that the characteristics of difficult volatilization, high boiling point, good thermal stability and high safety are more favorable for direct industrialization.
Figure 5 of the present invention is an X-ray diffraction pattern (XRD) of the lithium carbonate sample prepared in examples 2 and 3 and comparative example 2. The width of the peak pattern in the XRD pattern correlates with the crystallinity of the sample, and generally the wider the peak pattern, the lower the crystallinity of the sample. The XRD peak widths of the lithium carbonate samples prepared in example 2 and example 3 were different, so the crystallinity was different. Compared with the comparative example 2, the XRD peak width of the example 2 is obviously wider than that of the comparative example 2, which shows that the nano lithium carbonate with low crystallinity can not be prepared when ethanol is used as the elutriation agent, and the nano lithium carbonate with low crystallinity can be prepared well when dimethyl sulfoxide is used as the elutriation agent.
