Phosphorus sulfide (P2S5) → Phosphorus sulfide (P2S5)

Participants

Reaction Steps

Lithium sulfide (Li2S) and phosphorus pentasulfide (P2S5) were used as a starting material. These powders were weighed in a glove box under an Ar atmosphere (dew point: −70° C.) so as to become a molar ratio of 73.5Li2S.26.5P2S5, and mixed by an agate mortar to obtain a raw material composition of 1 g (Li2S=0.3644 g, P2S5=0.6356 g). Next, 1 g of the obtained raw material composition was projected into a 45-ml zirconia pot, and zirconia ball (φ=10 mm, 10 pieces) was further projected thereinto to hermetically seal the pot completely (Ar atmosphere). This pot was mounted on a planetary ball milling machine (P7™ manufactured by FRITSCH JAPAN CO., LTD.) to perform mechanical milling for 40 hours at the number of rotating table revolutions of 370 rpm and then obtain a sulfide solid electrolyte glass.
