Since its first introduction by Goodenough and co-workers, lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO 4, LFP) became one of the most relevant cathode materials for Li-ion batteries and is also a promising candidate for future all solid-state lithium metal batteries.
The synthesis of lithium iron phosphate can be achieved through solid-phase or liquid-phase methods. Solid phase techniques like high-temperature reactions, carbothermal reduction, and microwave synthesis are favored for their simplicity and suitability for industrial production.
Lithium iron phosphate cathode materials containing different low concentration ion dopants (Mg 2+, Al 3+, Zr 4+, and Nb 5+) are prepared by a solid state reaction method in an inert atmosphere. The effects of the doping ions on the properties of as synthesized cathode materials are investigated.
The lifecycle and primary research areas of lithium iron phosphate encompass various stages, including synthesis, modification, application, retirement, and recycling. Each of these stages is indispensable and relatively independent, holding significant importance for sustainable development.
Consequently, it has become a highly competitive, essential, and promising material, driving the advancement of human civilization and scientific technology. The lifecycle and primary research areas of lithium iron phosphate encompass various stages, including synthesis, modification, application, retirement, and recycling.
