Abstract:Iron phosphate (FePO4·xH2O) is a key precursor for lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4) cathode materials, and its chemical purity, phase structure, particle size distribution, and tap density directly determine the electrochemical performance of the final cathode material. Liquid-phase precipitation is currently the mainstream process for iron phosphate production, in which pH and the P/Fe molar ratio are the two core control variables that run through the entire reaction and most significantly affect product quality. Starting from a thermodynamic analysis of iron hydrolysis speciation, this paper systematically elucidates the chemical mechanisms underlying the pH control windows in the stages of iron-source oxidation, precipitation, aging, and washing. It further incorporates the P/Fe molar ratio, as a parameter coupled with pH, into a unified framework and establishes the relationship between the dual variables of pH and P/Fe ratio and the key product indicators at each stage, including impurity content, phase purity, tap density, particle size distribution, yield, and electrochemical performance. The results indicate that the pH in the precipitation stage should be strictly controlled within 1.8–2.2 to obtain phase-pure iron phosphate dihydrate, while the P/Fe molar ratio should be maintained in the slightly phosphorus-rich range of 1.00–1.02. A low P/Fe ratio (iron excess) severely degrades specific capacity through the formation of Fe(OH)3 impurity phases, whereas a high P/Fe ratio (phosphorus excess) leads to residual phosphorus and compromises slurry stability. On this basis, a coordinated control strategy covering the entire process and balancing the dynamic pH trajectory and stoichiometric ratio is proposed, providing theoretical guidance for the stable, large-scale production of battery-grade iron phosphate.
