The paper presents the results of the investigations of structural, morphological and electrochemical characteristics of Na x MnO2 (x = 0.44, 0.67 and 0.8) .It is shown that the crystal structure of the resulting materials is determined by the sodium content and is tunnel in a case of Na0.44MnO2 and layered in a case of Na0.67MnO2 and Na0.8MnO2. In addition, the materials obtained are characterized by different morphology. The initial discharge capacity of the materials obtained increases with the increase of sodium content in oxide phase and is 117, 139 and 151 mAh/g for Na0.44MnO2, Na0.67MnO2 and Na0.8MnO2, respectively, however, at the same time the stability of the specific capacity decreases. Using Na0.44MnO2 as an example, the effect of the electrolyte composition, in particular the presence of FEC, on its electrochemical characteristics is shown.

The LiFe0.98Ni0.01Nb0.01PO4/C sample was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM) and electrochemical measurements. The XRD analysis, SEM and TEM images show that sample has the good crystal structure, morphology and carbon coating. The charge-discharge tests demonstrate that the powder has the better electrochemical properties, with an initial discharge capacity of 164.6 mAh•g−1 at current density of 0.1 C. The capacity retention reaches 99.8% after 100 cycles at 0.1C.

This template explains and demonstrates how to prepare your camera-ready paper for Trans Tech Publications. The best is to read these instructions and follow the outline of this text. Common and cheap organic matters (Glucose anhydrous, Citric acid, Vitamin C, Sucrose) were selected for carbon coatings on LiFePO4. The four pre-treatment processes were employed to optimize the carbon coating process, and through solid state-carbothermal reduction synthesis of LiFePO4/C composites. The structure, morphology and electrochemical performance of the material were studied by XRD, SEM and galvanostatic charge-discharge methods. It is observed that the tap density of citric acid coating material can reach 1.44 g/ml. Conductivity increased four orders of magnitude. At room temperature, the initial discharge specific capacity of the materials is as high as 89.6 mAh/g at 5.0 C (corresponding to 850 mA/g). After 30 cycles, the capacity is 83.9 mAh/g and decay only 2.0 %.

The effect of a protective coating of fused lithium borate, Li3BO3, on the physicochemical and electrochemical characteristics of LiCoO2 has been studied. A cathode material produced by the SCS method using binary organic fuel, glycine and citric acid. The influence of the experiment conditions on the morphology, crystal structure and specific surface of lithium cobaltite was studied. Electrochemical testing of LiCoO2∙nLi3BO3 samples, n = 5 and 7 mass %, has been performed in the cathode Li|Li+-electrolyte|LiCoO2∙nLi3BO3 half-cell using 1M LiPF6 in EC/DMC mixture (1:1) as electrolyte in the 2.7-4.3 V range at normalized discharge current С/10, С/5, С/2. The maximal initial discharge capacity of 185 mAh/g was detected for the samples with 5 mass % Li3BO3. The coulomb efficiency of optimal materials in the 40th cycle was 99.1%.

The VO2 (B) was synthesized via a simple solvothermal route at 160oC in ethanol. The initial discharge capacity of VO2 (B) anode, in saturated aqueous solution of LiNO3, was 177 mAh g-1 at a current rate of 50 mA g-1. After 50 cycles capacity fade was 4%, but from 20th-50th cycle no capacity drop was observed. The VO2 (B) has shown very good cyclability at current rate of even 1000 mA g-1 with initial discharge capacity of 92 mAh g-1. The excellent electrochemical performance of VO2 (B) was attributed to the stability of micro-nano structures to repeated intercalation /deintercalation process, very good electronic conductivity as well as the very low charge transfer resistance in the aqueous electrolyte.

Normal 0 false false false MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 Layered cathode materials are important for Li-ion battery application due to their high theoretical specific capacity. Efforts have been made to synthesize mixed-metal cathode materials such as LiNi1/3Co1/3Mn1/3O2 based materials with promising electrochemical characteristics. This is to lower the expensive Co content and help to stabilize the materials. Substitution of these materials with chromium producing LiNi0.3Co0.3Mn0.3Cr0.1O2 material will also improve the stability of the cathodes. In this work, pure and single phase LiNi0.3Co0.3Mn0.3Cr0.1O2 material was successfully synthesized using a combustion method. The samples were then annealed at 900 °C for 24, 48 and 72 h. From the charge-discharged measurements, it was found that the performance of the LiNi0.3Co0.3Mn0.3Cr0.1O2 cathode material annealed at 900 °C for 24 h shows the best performance. /* Style Definitions */ table.MsoNormalTable {mso-style-name:"Table Normal"; mso-tstyle-rowband-size:0; mso-tstyle-colband-size:0; mso-style-noshow:yes; mso-style-parent:""; mso-padding-alt:0in 5.4pt 0in 5.4pt; mso-para-margin:0in; mso-para-margin-bottom:.0001pt; mso-pagination:widow-orphan; font-size:10.0pt; font-family:"Times New Roman"; mso-ansi-language:#0400; mso-fareast-language:#0400; mso-bidi-language:#0400;}

The influences of re-sintering on the structure and electrochemical performance of LiNi1/3Co1/3Mn1/3O2 were researched in this paper. The synthesized materials were characterized and tested by means of X-ray diffraction (XRD) and electrochemical measurements respectively. It was found that the re-sintered samples with better well-ordered layered structure, more perfect crystallization and more complete crystal structure will be formed with increasing temperature. Moreover, reasonable re-sintering time was required. The materials re-sintered at 860°C for 2h exhibited the best electrochemical performance, including high initial discharge capacity of 150.6 mAh•g-1 and coulomb efficiency of 84% at 0.2C rate.

The strengthening effect at high temperature produced by a dispersed oxide phase in a metal matrix is seemingly dependent on at least two major contributors: oxide particle size and spatial distribution, and stability of the worked microstructure. These two are strongly interrelated. The stability of the microstructure is produced by polygonization of the worked structure forming low angle cell boundaries which become anchored by the dispersed oxide particles. The effect of the particles on strength is therefore twofold, in that they stabilize the worked microstructure and also hinder dislocation motion during loading.
