Abstract: Based on preparing high purity powdered lithium ion-sieve precursor LiMn2O4, using lithium carbonate and manganese carbonate as raw materials, through roasting at high temperature of 800°C, laminar lithium ion-sieve precursor was prepared by commixing poly (vinyl chloride) (PVC) and powdered precursor in DMF (N, N-dimethylformamide) as solvent, and then powder and lithium ion-sieve flat sheet membrane was obtained through washing with HCl solution respectively. Their adsorption capacity and morphology was also characterized. The results show that both powdered lithium ion-sieve and laminar one have high adsorption capacity and selectivity for Li in solutions, and the effect of their retest is good. All these can provide a good foundation for the further study on lithium ion-sieve flat sheet membrane and lithium extraction from seawater.
