The present invention relates to a saggar for firing an active material of a secondary battery, a method for manufacturing the saggar, and a method for firing the active material. The saggar for firing an active material of a secondary battery according to the present invention has a coating layer formed on a bottom surface or a wall surface thereof so as to collect carbon dioxide. By means of the coating layer, the concentration of the carbon dioxide in the saggar can be lowered by collecting the carbon dioxide that is a by-product resulting from a firing reaction, thereby enabling a reduction in the amount of remaining lithium in the active material. The saggar of the present invention provides the saggar for firing an active material of a secondary battery, wherein the saggar has at least one through hole in the bottom surface, or the bottom surface and wall surfaces thereof so as to communicate a gas.

A double-shell phase change heat storage balls and preparation method thereof is disclosed. The technical scheme is as follows. Paraffin is placed in oven, and organic ignition loss is added to obtain paraffin melt containing the ignition loss; metal balls is immersed in the paraffin melt containing the ignition loss, and cooled naturally to obtain the metal balls coated by ignition loss and paraffin; alumina refractory slurry is placed in a pan granulator, and the metal balls coated by ignition loss and paraffin is added, pelletized, and dried to obtain alumina composite phase change heat storage ball bodies; mullite refractory slurry is placed in a pan granulator, alumina composite phase change heat storage ball bodies is added, pelletized, dried, and placed in a muffle furnace. The temperature is raised to 1200-1600° C. by three systems and maintained. After naturally cooling, the double-shell phase change heat storage balls are prepared.
