Journal of Electrochemistry

Cathode material of LiNi_(0.85)Co_(0.10)(TiMg)_(0.025)O_2 were prepared by solid state reaction at 725℃ for 24 h from LiOH·H_2O, Ni_2O_3, Co_2O_3, TiO_2 and Mg(OH)_2 under flowing oxygen, and were characterized by TG-DTA, XRD, SEM and electrochemical tests. Effort to simultaneously doped LiNiO_2 with Co-Ti-Mg has been tried to improve the cathode performance. The results show that co-doping definitely has a large beneficial effect in increasing the capacity (182.7mAh/g of the first discharge capacity for LiNi_(0.85)Co_(0.10)(TiMg)_(0.025)O_2) and cycling behavior (175.5 mAh/g after 10 cycles). This cathode materials can be applied for lithium-ion batteries.

The Mechanism Of The Improvement On Cycling Performance And Thermal Stability Of Lini_(0.8)Co_(0.2)O_2 By Ti-Doping, Han-San Liu, Jie Li, Zheng-Liang Gong, Zhong-Ru Zhang, Yong Yang

Journal of Electrochemistry

Improved cycling performance and enhanced thermal stability were observed for Ti-doped LiNi_(0.8)Co_(0.2)O_2 cathode materials. The mechanism of these positive effects was investigated in this work. The improved cycling performance of Ti-doped cathodes is ascribed to the suppression of phase transitions and lattice changes during cycling, and the decrease of interfacial reaction activity between the cathode and electrolyte. The enhanced thermal stability of Ti-doped cathodes is attributed to the suppression of thermal decomposition reaction of delithiated cathode material, which will produce heat and oxygen gas as the cause of electrolyte decomposition and combustion reaction.
