Popis: | Herein, high-quality cobalt carbonate is synthesized by employing a novel liquid phase precipitation route, where CoCl2 and ammonium bicarbonate solutions are used as the raw material and precipitator, respectively. The morphology of primary and secondary particles and agglomeration due to their nucleation and growth are influenced by the stirring speed, reaction temperature and pH value. Furthermore, the influence of process parameters on physiochemical properties has been systematically studied by measuring apparent density, FSSS particle size, specific surface area and chloride ions concentration. Under optimal processing conditions, i.e., stirring speed of 100 rpm, pH value of 7.0-7.1 and a reaction temperature of 55 °C, the as-synthesized cobalt carbonate rendered an apparent density of 0.74 g/cm3 and chloride ions concentration of 19 ppm. The results reveal that the washing efficiency of chloride ions is affected by the morphology of primary particles and stacking mode of the secondary particle in cobalt carbonate. In general, the higher BET specific surface area of cobalt carbonate results in lower chloride ions concentration. |
