Journal of Electrochemistry

The Li-rich Li1.23Ni0.09Co0.12Mn0.56O2 material was synthesized via aqueous solution-evaporation route. The structure and morphology of the material were characterized by means of XRD and SEM. The results indicated that the single particle of the product was polygonal with the size of 330 nm and the structure was layered solid solution with a certain amount of Li2MnO3. Electrochemical tests showed that the first discharge capacity of the Li-rich layered material was 250.8 mAh·g-1 at 0.1C,the capacity retention was 86.5% after 40 cycles. Through in-situ XRD study a …

Effects Of Fluoroethylene Carbonate Additive On Low Temperature Performance Of Li-Ion Batteries, Feng-Ju Bian, Zhong-Ru Zhang, Yong Yang

Journal of Electrochemistry

The effects of fluoroethylene carbonate (FEC) on the low temperature performance of lithium ion phosphate full battery are evaluated by different techniques. By addition of 5 wt% FEC into a commercial electrolyte, effective solid electrolyte interface (SEI) film can be formed on the graphite electrodes, the discharge capacity retention at -40 oC was increased from 31.7% to 43.7%, and the discharge voltage plateau of the cell is raised. This is attributed to a reduced charge transfer resistance and a lowered polarization on the graphite electrode by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and reference electrode test.


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 Apr 2013

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 …
