Thickness changes associated with charging and discharging challenge the practical application of electrodes composed of high-capacity materials towards batteries of both high energy density and long life. The investigation on the electrode level has found that the red phosphorus composite electrodes experience reversible expansion and shrinkage during lithiation/delithiation, except for the first...
AlF3-coating is attempted to improve the performance of LiNi0.5Mn1.5O4 cathode materials for Li-ion batteries. The prepared powders are characterized by scanning electron microscope, powder X-ray diffraction, charge/discharge, and impedance. The coated LiNi0.5Mn1.5O4 samples show higher discharge capacity, better rate capability, and higher capacity retention than the uncoated samples. Among the coated...
ZrO2-coated LiNi1/3Co1/3Mn1/3O2 materials were prepared by hydroxide precipitation. The structure and electrochemical properties of the ZrO2-coated LiNi1/3Co1/3Mn1/3O2 were investigated using X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscope, and charge–discharge tests, indicating that the lattice structure of LiNi1/3Co1/3Mn1/3O2 were unchanged after the coating but the cycling stability was improved...
Preparation of LiCoO2 cathode materials from spent lithium–ion batteries are presented. It started with the reclaim/recycle of metal values from spent lithium–ion batteries, which involves the separation of electrode materials by ultrasonic treatment, acid dissolution, precipitation of cobalt and lithium, followed by the preparation of LiCoO2 cathode materials. Co (99.4%) and Li (94.5%) were recovered...
Spherical LiNi1/3Co1/3Mn1/3O2 was successfully prepared by controlled crystallization. The preparation started with the spherical coprecipitate of Ni1/3Co1/3Mn1/3CO3 from NiSO4, CoSO4, MnSO4, NH4HCO3, and NH3·H2O, followed by pyrolysis of Ni1/3Co1/3Mn1/3CO3 at 600°C for 3 h. The X-ray diffraction analysis showed that the homogeneous cubic (Ni1/3Co1/3Mn1/3)3O4 was obtained after the pyrolysis. Spherical...
TiO2-coated LiNi1/3Co1/3Mn1/3O2 materials were prepared by the hydrolyzation of Ti(OBu)4. The impact of TiO2 coating on the structure and electrochemical properties of LiNi1/3Co1/3Mn1/3O2 was investigated using X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscope, and charge–discharge tests. The results indicated that TiO2 coating did not affect the lattice of LiNi1/3Co1/3Mn1/3O2, but exhibited obvious...
Capacity fading of LiCr0.1Mn1.9O4 /MPCF (mesophase pitch-based carbon fiber) cells was investigated at elevated temperature (55 °C). The cells showed very fast capacity fading, keeping only 60% of capacity retention at the 100th cycle at 55 °C. The cycled electrodes and the electrolyte were analyzed using electrochemical test, inductively coupled plasma, and X-ray diffraction. Results of the analyses...
