Effect of the Synthesis Method on the Functional Properties of Lithium-Rich Complex Oxides Li1.2Mn0.54Ni0.13Co0.13O2

Аннотация

Layered Li-rich transition metal oxides are considered among the most promising cathode materials for high energy density lithium-ion batteries. It was studied how the method and conditions of synthesis of Li-rich oxides Li_1.2Mn_0.54Ni_0.13Co_0.13O₂ affect their electrochemical properties. Coprecipitation methods and modified Pechini process were used. It was shown that it is necessary to carefully choose the synthesis conditions when using the modified Pechini method because of their significant effect on the morphology of Li-rich oxides. Samples were obtained with high electrochemical characteristics: capacity discharge of 260–270 mAh/g (16 mA/g) and 60–70 mAh/g (988 mA/g) within the voltage range of 2.5–4.8 V.
