In this work, we investigated three types of graphene (i.e., home-made G, G V4, and G V20) with different size and morphology, as additives to a lithium iron phosphate (LFP) cathode for the lithium-ion battery. Both the LFP and the two types of graphene (G V4 and G V20) were sourced from industrial, large-volume manufacturers, enabling cathode production at low cost. The use of wrinkled and/or large pieces of a graphene matrix shows promising electrochemical performance when used as an additive to the LFP, which indicates that the features of large and curved graphene pieces enable construction of a more effective conducting network to realize the full potential of the active materials. Specifically, compared to pristine LFP, the LFP/G, LFP/G V20, and LFP/G V4 show up to a 9.2%, 6.9%, and 4.6% increase, respectively, in a capacity at 1 C. Furthermore, the LFP combined with graphene exhibits a better rate performance than tested with two different charge/discharge modes. Moreover, from the economic and electrochemical performance view point, we also demonstrated that 1% of graphene content is optimized no matter the capacity calculated, based on the LFP/graphene composite or pure LFP.

The effects of particle size distribution on compacted density of as-prepared spherical lithium iron phosphate (LFP) LFP-1 and LFP-2 materials electrode for high-performance 18650 Li-ion batteries are investigated systemically, while the selection of two commercial materials LFP-3 and LFP-4 as a comparison. The morphology study and physical characterization results show that the LFP materials are composed of numerous particles with an average size of 300–500 nm, and have well-developed interconnected pore structure and a specific surface area of 13–15 m2/g. For CR2032 coin-type cell, the specific discharge capacities of the LFP-1 and LFP-2 are about 165 mAh/g at 0.2 C. For 18650 batteries, results indicate that the LFP-3 material has the highest compacted density of 2.52 g/cm3 at a concentrated particle size distribution such as D10 = 0.56 μm, D50 = 1.46 μm, and D90 = 6.53 μm. By mixing two different particle sizes of LFP-1 and LFP-2, the compaction density can be increased significantly from 1.90 g/cm3 to 2.25 g/cm3.

A novel composite of LiFePO4 with phosphorus-doped carbon layers has been prepared via a simple hydrothermal method using glucose as the carbon source to generate a carbon coating and triphenylphosphine as the phosphorus source.
