Layered LiNi1/3Co1/3Mn1/3O2 is one of the most promising alternative materials for LiCoO2 in lithium ion batteries due to its low cost,large capacity and excellent cyclability.In this paper,LiNi1/3 Co1/3 Mn1/3 O2 was synthesized via azeotropic distillation method with isobutyl alcohol as an azeotropic agent.The structure and surface morphology were characterized by X-ray diffraction(XRD) and scanning electron microscope(SEM),respectively.The as-prepared LiNi1/3Co1/3Mn1/3O2 shows a layered α-NaFeO2 structure;the particles are small and uniformly distributed.As compared with the sample prepared by traditional method,the present cathode material exhibits superior cyclability and rate capability,which can be ascribed to the enhanced Li + diffusion due to smaller and more …
