The potential use of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) produced by chemical vapour deposition (CVD) as a conductive agent for electrodes in Li-ion batteries has been investigated. LiNi0.33Co0.33Mn0.33O2 (NCM) has been chosen as active material for positive electrodes, and a nano-sized TiO2-rutile for the negative electrodes. The electrochemical performances of the electrodes were studied by galvanostatic techniques and especially the influence of the nanotubes on the rate capability and cycling stability has been evaluated. The addition of MWCNTs significantly enhanced the rate performances of both positive and negative electrodes and improved the capacity retention upon cycling. The obtained results demonstrated that the addition of MWCNTs in low amounts to the electrode composition enables an increase in both energy and power density of a Li-ion battery.

Li-ion battery cathode materials were synthesised via a mechanical activation and thermal treatment process and systematically studied. LiFePO4/CNT composite cathode materials were successfully prepared from LiFePO4material. The synthesis technique involved growth of carbon nanotubes onto the LiFePO4using a novel spray pyrolysis-modified CVD technique. The technique yielded LiFePO4/CNT composite cathode material displaying good electrochemical activity. The composite cathode exhibited excellent electrochemical performances with 163 mAh/g discharge capacity with 94% cycle efficiency at a 0.1 C discharge rate in the first cycle, with a capacity fade of approximately 10% after 30 cycles. The results indicate that carbon nanotube addition can enable LiFePO4to display a higher discharge capacity at a fast rate with high efficiency. The research is of potential interest for the application of carbon nanotubes as a new conducting additive in cathode preparation and for the development of high-power Li-ion batteries for hybrid electric vehicles.
