Journal of Electrochemistry

The amorphous ZnSnO3@C composite was synthesized via a simple glucose hydrothermal and subsequent carbonization approach. The structure, morphology and electrochemical property of the composite were characterized by XRD, TEM and electrochemical measurements. Compared to bare ZnSnO3, the ZnSnO3/C composite exhibited markedly enhanced lithium storage property and cycle performance, delivering a reversible capacity of 659 mAh·g-1 after 100 cycles at a current density of 100 mA·g-1.

Journal of Electrochemistry

We adopted an effective route to prepare the particle size controllable core-shell structure carbon-coated LiFePO4 from different sized FePO4 precursors, varying from 80 nm, 200 nm and 1 μm by an in situ polymerization method integrated with a surface modification technology. The discharge capacities of the three sized LiFePO4/C are, respectively, 162 mAh·g-1, 142 mAh·g-1 and 92 mAh·g-1 at 0.1C rate. The nano-sized LiFePO4-a/C (80 nm) delivers a discharge capacity as large as 100 mAh·g-1 even at 30C, while the macroscopic LiFePO4-c/C (1 μm) exhibits a much poorer discharge …

Electrochemical Performance Of Lifepo4/C Synthesized Via Aqueous Solution-Evaporation Route, Ning-Yu Gu, Xing-Hua He, Yang Li

Journal of Electrochemistry

The LiFePO4/C samples have been synthesized via an aqueous solution-evaporation route with LiH2PO4, FeC2O4.2H2O as raw materials and citric acid as a carbon source. X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) were used to analyze structure and morphology of the samples. The electrochemical performances of the LiFePO4/C cathodes were characterized by charge/discharge cures and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The results show that the LiFePO4/C sample, calcined at 700 °C and contained 3.03% (by mass) carbon, exhibited a highly pure …
