Olivine compounds LiFePO4 were prepared by the solid state reaction, and the electrochemical properties were studied with the composite cathode of LiFePO4/mesocarbon nanobead. High discharge rate performance can be achieved with the designed composite cathode of LiFePO4/mesocarbon nanobead. According to the experiment results, batteries with the composite cathode deliver discharge capacity of 1087mAh for 18650 type cell at 20C discharge rate at room temperature. The analysis shows that the uniformity of mesocarbon nanobead around LiFePO4 can supply enough change for electron transporting, which can enhance the rate capability for LiFePO4 cathode lithium ion batteries. It is confirmed that lithium ion batteries with LiFePO4 as cathode are suitable to electric vehicle application.

ABSTRACTAn efficient microwave-assisted polyol (MP) approach is report to prepare SnO2/graphene hybrid as an anode material for lithium ion batteries. The key factor to this MP method is to start with uniform graphene oxide (GO) suspension, in which a large amount of surface oxygenate groups ensures homogeneous distribution of the SnO2 nanoparticles onto the GO sheets under the microwave irradiation. The period for the microwave heating only takes 10 min. The obtained SnO2/graphene hybrid anode possesses a reversible capacity of 967 mAh g-1 at 0.1 C and a high Coulombic efficiency of 80.5% at the first cycle. The cycling performance and the rate capability of the hybrid anode are enhanced in comparison with that of the bare graphene anode. This improvement of electrochemical performance can be attributed to the formation of a 3-dimensional framework. Accordingly, this study provides an economical MP route for the fabrication of SnO2/graphene hybrid as an anode material for high-performance Li-ion batteries.
