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 …

Synthesis Of Lifepo4/C Cathode By Sol-Gel And Calcining Method With Chitosan Monomer, Jia Xu, Yan-Yan Wang, Rui Wang, Bo Wang, Yue Pan, Dian-Xue Cao, Gui-Ling Wang
Journal of Electrochemistry
The LiFePO4/C cathode materials for Li-ion battery were synthesized by sol-gel and calcining method using chitosan monomer as a carbon source and a gelating agent. The structures and morphologies were characterized by X-ray diffraction spectroscopy (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The electrochemical performance was investigated by the galvanostatic charge–discharge test. When the molar ratios between chitosan monomer and LiFePO4 were 1:1.2, the LiFePO4/C cathode calcined at 600 oC showed the best performance. The particle sizes ranged 200 ～ 400 nm. The initial discharge capacity of 155 mAh.g-1 was achieved at room temperature …
