Title:
PROCESS FOR PRODUCING LITHIUM BORATE COMPOUND
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2010/104137
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A process for producing, by a relatively simple means, a lithium borate material which is useful as a positive-electrode material for lithium-ion secondary batteries, etc. and has improved cycle characteristics, capacity, etc., and excellent performances. The process is characterized by reacting one or more divalent-metal compounds comprising at least one compound selected from a group consisting of compounds of divalent iron and compounds of divalent manganese with boric acid and lithium hydroxide in a reducing atmosphere at 400-650ºC in the melt of a carbonate mixture comprising lithium carbonate and at least one alkali metal carbonate selected from a group consisting of potassium carbonate, sodium carbonate, rubidium carbonate, and cesium carbonate.
