A Comparison In Structural Transformation Of Li[NiXCoYMnZ]O2 (X = 0.6, 0.85) Cathode Materials In Lithium-Ion Batteries, Li-Juan Li, Zhen-Dong Zhu, Juan Dai, Rong-Rong Wang, Wen Peng

Journal of Electrochemistry

In this paper, the phase transformation voltage ranges of two layered oxide ternary cathode materials, namely, Li(Ni_0.85Co_0.10Mn_0.05)O₂ (referred to Ni85, presenting high Ni content) and Li(Ni_0.6Co_0.2Mn_0.2)O₂ (referred to Ni60, presenting common low Ni content), were classified and determined. The structural differences between high Ni and common low Ni ternary materials were studied in order to understand the structure instability of high nickel material during the charging process. At the same time, the differential capacity (dQ·dV-1) curves of Ni85 and Ni60 positive electrodes …
