Nickel-rich LiNiCoMnO (LNCM811) is a promising lithium-ion battery cathode material, whereas the surface-sensitive issues (i.e., side reaction and oxygen loss) occurring on LNCM811 particles significantly degrade their electrochemical capacity retentions. A uniform LiZrO coating layer can effectively mitigate the problem by preventing these issues. Instead of the normally used weak hydrogen-bonding interaction, we present a covalent interfacial engineering for the uniform LiZrO coating on LiNiCoMnO materials. Results indicate that the strong covalent interactions between citric acid and NiCoMn(OH) precursor effectively promote the adsorption of ZrO coating species on NiCoMn(OH) precursor, which is eventually converted to uniform LiZrO coating layers of about 7 nm after thermal annealing. The uniform LiZrO coating endows LNCM811 cathode materials with an exceptionally high capacity retention of 98.7% after 300 cycles at 1 C. This work shows the great potential of covalent interfacial engineering for improving the electrochemical cycling capability of Ni-rich lithium-ion battery cathode materials.

Among the various cathode materials used in LIBs (Lithium ion batteries), nickel rich cathode materials have attracted an increasing amount of interest due to their high capacity, relatively low cost, and low toxicity when compared to LiCoO2. However, these materials always contain a large amount of residual lithium compounds such as LiOH and Li2CO3. The presence of lithium residues is undesirable because the oxidation of these compounds results in the formation of Li2O and CO2 gas at higher voltages, which lowers the coulombic efficiency between the charge and discharge capacities during cycling. In this study, using LiNi0.8Co0.1Mn0.1O2 as a starting material, a surface-modified cathode material was obtained by using reducing agent. The reducing agent not only plays the role of reducing the oxide conversion energy but also suppresses the side reaction with the electrolyte due to the surface modification. Residual lithium present on the cathode material surface was reduced from 11,702 ppm to 8,658 ppm, resulting in improved high temperature cycle performance and impedance characteristics.

With the development of new energy vehicles, urgent issues have attracted considerable attention. Some power batteries have entered the scrapping period, with the imperative recycling of used power batteries. Some studies have predicted that by 2020, the amount of power lithium battery scrap will reach 32.2 GWh, corresponding to ~500,000 tons, and by 2023, the scrap will reach 101 GWh, corresponding to ~1.16 million tons. In this study, nickel-cobalt-lithium LiNi0.7Co0.3O2cathode materials are regenerated from spent lithium-ion battery cathode materials as the raw material, which not only aids in the reduction of pressure on the environment but also leads to the recycling of resources. First, extraction is employed using extracting agent p204 to remove aluminum ions from an acid leaching solution. Extraction conditions for aluminum ions are: include a phase ratio of 1:2,a pH of 3, an extractant concentration of 30%, and a saponification rate of 70%.Next, the precursor was prepared by co-precipitation using sodium hydroxide and ammonia water as the precipitant and complexion agents, respectively; hence, the cathode material can be uniformly mixed at the atomic level. The precursor and lithium hydroxide were subjected to calcination at high temperature using a high-temperature solid-phase method. The Calcination conditions include an air atmosphere ; a calcination temperature of 800° °C ; a calcination time of 15 h, an n (precursor): n (lithium hydroxide) ratio of 1:1.1.The Thermogravimetric analysis revealed that the synthesis temperature should not exceed 850°C. X-ray diffraction analysis, scanning electron microscopy, and energy spectrum analysis of the cathode material revealed a composition comprising Li, Ni, and Co oxides. After analysis, the material obtained is lithium nickel-cobalt-oxide, LiNi0.7Co0.3O2, which is a positive electrode material with good crystallinity and a regular layered structure.

The lithium-ion battery is widely and increasingly used in many portable electronic devices and high-power systems in the modern society. Currently, it is significant to develop excellent cathode materials to meet stringent standards for batteries. In this paper, recent developments were reviewed for several typical cathode materials with high voltages and good capacities. These cathode materials referred to LiCoO2, LiNiO2, LiMn2O4, LiMPO4 (M=Fe, Mn, Co and Ni, et al), and their composites. The technical bottlenecks about the cathode material is required to be conquered. For instance, LiCoO2 and LiNiO2 have high coulombic capacity and good cycling characteristics, but are costly and exhibit poor thermal stability. Simultaneously, LiMn2O4 exhibit good thermal stability, high voltage and high rate capability, but have low capacity. Thus it is advantageous to produce a composite which shares the benefits of both materials. The composite cathode material is superior over any single electrode material because the former has more balanced performance, and therefore, is promising to manufacture the next generation of batteries.

LiFe 1-x Mn x PO 4/ C composites were prepared as cathode material for lithium ion battery via solid-state reaction and using glucose as reducing agent and carbon source. The crystal structure and morphology were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM) and transmission electron microscope (TEM). The resultant samples were pure olivine compounds with an orthorhombic structure. Their electrochemical performance was studied by galvanostatic charge–discharge test and cyclic voltammetry. The results showed that the sample LiFe0.8Mn0.2PO4/C with an average particle size of 400 nm exhibited the largest discharge capacity of 150 mAh g-1, excellent reversibility of charge–discharge and high capacity retention of 97% after a 50-cycle CV scanning. The improved electrical conductivity corresponding to the fine carbon layer around the LiFe0.8Mn0.2PO4 individual particle can be responsible for all these excellent electrochemical performance.

LiNixCoyAlzO2 (NCA) is one of the most promising candidates of cathode material for lithium ion batteries because of its high capacity, energy density, and low cost. However, Ni-rich NCA cathode materials suffer from side reaction (formation of lithium carbonate and hydrogen fluoride attack) between electrolyte and surface of electrode and irreversible phase transition leading to capacity fading and thermal instability. These problems could be improved by coating and doping of transition metal elements. Si doping contributes to stabilization of the unstable R-3m structure, and Ti coating is capable of prohibiting the direct physical contact of electrode with electrolyte. In this work, LiNi0.8Co0.15Al0.05O2 (NCA) cathode materials coated or/and doped by Ti and Si elements were fabricated by co-precipitation method using the ball-milling. The crystal structure, morphology and electrochemical properties are investigated using X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), transmission electron microscopy (FE-TEM), and WBCS3000 (WonA tech Co., Ltd.). The EIS and charge/discharge results of Si doped and Ti coated NCA exhibited the lowest resistance value (147.19 Ω) and capacity retentions of 88% after 100 cycles at 0.5 C.
