Journal of Electrochemistry
The monoclinic Li3V2(PO4)3 cathode materials were prepared by carbothermal reduction method,with methyl cellulose,chitosan(crab shells) or glucose anhydrous as carbon sources,respectively.The crystal structures,morphologies and the electrochemical performances were characterized by XRD,SEM and electrochemical measurement.The XRD patterns show that the samples obtained at 800 ℃ for 6 h have a pure monoclinic structure,which indicates that the carbon exists in amorphous phase.Electrochemical measurements show that the difference of carbon sources has a significant influence on the electrochemical properties of the materials.The Li3V2(PO4)3 /C with methyl cellulose as the reduction agent has the best electrochemical performance.In the voltage range of 3.0 ~ 4.5 V …

Cobalt-doped todorokites were prepared by refluxing at atmospheric pressure,and then charactered by X-ray diffraction(XRD),thermogravimetry(TG) and the analysis of chemical compositions.These measurements showed that all of the refluxing products were single phase of todorokites and the structure formulas were MgxCoyMnOz·nH2O,where 0.18 ≤ x ≤ 0.22,0 ≤ y ≤ 0.24,2.10 ≤ z ≤ 2.53,and 0.35 ≤ n ≤0.73.The electrochemical characteristics of cobalt-doped todorokites were examined as lithium insertion hosts for cathodes in rechargeable lithium batteries.The first discharge capacity of undoped todorokite electrode was 211 mAh/g and the discharge capacity became 37 mAh/g after 30 cycles.The Mg0.18Co0.12MnO2.19·0.45 H2O with doping Co 10% displayed …
