With the continuous increase in requirements for energy density and rate performance in the new energy industry, the কণা আকার distribution (PSD) of লিথিয়াম আয়রন ফসফেট (LFP) has become a key factor determining slurry আবরণ quality and electrochemical performance.
To address these demands, a leading domestic manufacturer focused on lithium battery cathode materials grinding to achieve shorter ion diffusion paths and higher material activity. The company required its LFP material to be ground to D50 1.30μm, while strictly controlling the increase of metallic impurities (such as zinc wear) and maintaining a narrow particle size distribution.
1. Core Equipment Selection for Lithium Battery Cathode Materials Grinding
সরঞ্জাম: এপিক পাউডার MQW সিরিজ ফ্লুইডাইজড বেড জেট মিল
প্রযুক্তিগত বৈশিষ্ট্য:
- Multi-nozzle collaborative design:
The MQW series adopts oppositely arranged nozzles around the grinding chamber. Supersonic airflow drives particle–particle collision and self-grinding, greatly reducing wear on equipment walls. - High-precision classification:
Equipped with a horizontal high-speed classifier wheel. By adjusting the rotational speed (RPM), oversized particles can be precisely cut. - সম্পূর্ণ সিরামিক সুরক্ষা:
For battery-grade materials, all product-contact parts (nozzles, classifier wheel, liners) are made of alumina or silicon carbide ceramic tiles, ensuring zero metal contamination.
2. Production Parameters and Measured Results
During on-site commissioning for the target of 1.30 μm, the following data were recorded:
| আইটেম | Process Parameter / Test Result |
|---|---|
| Feed particle size | D50 ≈ 15–20 μm |
| গ্রাইন্ডিং চাপ | ০.৭–০.৮ এমপিএ |
| ক্লাসিফায়ার চাকার গতি | 3,500–4,200 RPM (adjusted according to model) |
| Final product D50 | ১.৩০ মাইক্রোমিটার |
| PSD characteristic | Narrow distribution curve, with D100 effectively controlled |
3. Core Advantages
- Morphology protection:
Compared with mechanical mills, the MQW জেট মিল generates very little heat during grinding, effectively preventing damage to the carbon coating layer on LFP particles. - High-efficiency dispersion:
দ জেট মিলিং process provides strong de-agglomeration, solving the agglomeration tendency of ultrafine LFP powders. - High level of automation:
The system integrates negative-pressure collection and automatic control, ensuring compliant dust emission and consistent batch-to-batch quality.
4. Conclusion
By adopting the এপিক পাউডার MQW series jet mill, the customer successfully achieved a stable transition of lithium iron phosphate from fine to ultrafine particle size. Precise control at 1.30 μm not only improved the rate discharge performance of the ব্যাটারি উপাদান, but also provided strong technical support for the company’s competitiveness in the high-power battery market.
