<p class="PaperAbstract"><span lang="EN-US">LiFe<sub>1-x</sub>VxPO<sub>4</sub>/C (x= 0.01, 0.03, 0.05, 0.1) composites had been obtained by sol-gel method and characterized with the use of the XRD-analysis, SEM and charge/discharge tests. The doping was shown to result in decrease of electrode polarization, and correspondingly in capacity increase at high C-rates.</span></p>
A biocarbon coated Li3V2(PO4)3 (LVP-C) cathode with high electrochemical performance was synthesized by a sol–gel method using recycled tea as both structural template and carbon source.
