Synthesis And Electrochemical Properties Of High-Capacity Cathode Material 0.08lico0.75Al0.25O2-0.92linio2, Ru-Ying Wang, Tian Qiu, Chong Mao, Wen-Sheng Yang Aug 2012

Synthesis And Electrochemical Properties Of High-Capacity Cathode Material 0.08lico0.75Al0.25O2-0.92linio2, Ru-Ying Wang, Tian Qiu, Chong Mao, Wen-Sheng Yang

Journal of Electrochemistry

CoAl-LDH or Co(OH)2 coated spherical Ni(OH)2 precursors were obtained via a co-precipitation method at a constant pH. The mixtures of the precursors and LiOH.H2O were annealed at high temperature in O2 atmosphere, and then the cathode materials of 0.08LiCo0.75Al0.25O2-0.92LiNiO2, 0.08LiCoO2-0.92LiNiO2 and LiNiO2 were synthesized. Effects of the coating layer were also studied. The results showed that the 0.08LiCo0.75Al0.25O2-0.92LiNiO2 material possessed the best rate and cycle life performance. The discharging capacities at 0.1C, 0.5C and 3C were …

With rutile TiO2 and NaOH as starting materials, the Na2Ti6O13 nanotubes were prepared by a hydrothermal reaction. The carbon-coated Na2Ti6O13 nanotubes were obtained by treating the Na2Ti6O13 nanotubes for 4 h in glucose aqueous solutions containing 0.1 mol?L-1 NaOH. The as-prepared samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microcopy (TEM). The results showed that the dimensions of carbon-coated Na2Ti6O13 nanotubes were 14 ~ 19 nm of outer diameter, 2 ~ 5 nm of inner diameter, and several hundreds nanometers of length with a carbon layer of about 2 nm being coated on outer …
