The Behaviors Of Capacity Loss Of Limn2o4 Cathodeat Elevated Temperatures, Xiaohong Hu, Hanxi Yang, Xinping Ai, Shengxian Li, Xinlin Hong

Journal of Electrochemistry

The capacity loss of spinel LiMn2O4 cathode at elevated temperatures was evaluated by constant current charge_discharge methods and it was found that serious capacity loss and cycleability decrease occured at above 50 , especially for the charged cells. The mechanisms for this phenomena were examined by atomic emission and infrared spectrometry of the electrolyte, XRD measurment of the cycled elecrode and microelectrode voltammetry of LiMn2O4 at room and elevated temperatures. The results showed that with increasing temperature, Mn and Li ions tended to redistribute partly in the spinel framework due to the disproportion of Mn3+ ions and this results in …
