  • Publication number: 20210408581
    Abstract: [Problem] To provide a method for efficiently producing a sulfide solid electrolyte using a liquid-phase method. [Solution to Problem] A method for producing a sulfide solid electrolyte not using a pulverizer in reacting raw materials, wherein a raw material that contains lithium sulfide, a phosphorus compound and a halogen compound, and a complexing agent are stirred in a reactor while a fluid that contains the contents in the reactor is discharged outside the reactor through a discharging port arranged in the reactor and the fluid that contains the discharged contents is returned back to the reactor through a returning port arranged in the reactor to thereby make the contents-containing fluid circulate therethrough.

  • Publication number: 20210376377
    Abstract: The invention is to provide a novel method for producing a solid electrolyte having a high ionic conductivity according to a liquid-phase method. The production method for a solid electrolyte includes mixing a raw material inclusion containing a lithium atom, a sulfur atom, a phosphorus atom and a halogen atom with a complexing agent and a solvent, wherein the amount of the complexing agent is 0.1 mL or more and 4.0 mL or less relative to 1 g of the total mass of the raw material inclusion.

  • Publication number: 20140128652
    Abstract: There is provided a process for producing high-purity diisobutylene with a high reaction selectivity in which a mixed C4 fraction is contacted with an oligomerization catalyst to subject isobutene to oligomerization at one stage. The present invention relates to a process for producing diisobutylene by contacting a mixed C4 fraction as a raw material with a solid acid catalyst, which includes the steps of (a) isobutene oligomerization; (b) subjecting the resulting reaction products to distillation to separate the unreacted C4 fraction and an oligomer fraction including a C8 fraction produced from each other; and (c) purification of diisobutylene from the C8 fraction by distillation, in which a conversion of isobutene contained in the mixed C4 fraction upon conducting the step (a) is controlled to a range of from 60 to 95%.
