Composite FeF3•3H2O/C was prepared by mixing FeF3•3H2O with acetylene black through high-energy milling, and used as cathode material for Li-ion battery. The structure and the morphology of the as-prepared composite FeF3•3H2O/C were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). When compared with FeF3•3H2O synthesized by a liquid-phase method, the composite FeF3•3H2O/C had no distinct difference in crystal structure, but shows that a well distributed particle size of 100~1000nm. The electrochemical performances of FeF3•3H2O/C composite were evaluated by charge-discharge test and cyclic voltammetery (CV). With a current density of 23.7mAg-1 in the voltage range of 2.0~4.5V at room temperature, the FeF3•3H2O/C composite achieved a maximum discharge capacity of 112 mAhg-1, as well as a good cycling performance.

Li4Ti5-xAlxO12(x=0.03, 0.05, 0.10) were prepared by a solution method. The electrochemical performances including charge-discharge and AC impedance were investigated. The structure of the samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction. The results revealed that proper Al doped into Li4Ti5O12would not change or destroy the crystal structure. Li4Ti5-xAlxO12(x=0.03, 0.05) had better capacity than Li4Ti5O12, because of the decrease of electric resistance. But when the quality percent of Al was too big, it will bring negative influence to Li4Ti5O12. Al3+doping did not change the electrochemical process, instead enhanced the electronic conductivity and ionic conductivity. The reversible capacity and cycling performance were effectively improved.

on doping is an effective means to improve the performance of LiFePO4 material. In the present study, composites LiFe (PO4)(1-x/3)Fx/C (x=0.00,0.02,0.04,0.06,0.08,0.10) were synthesized by carbothermal reduction method. The as-synthesized samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscope, and their electrochemical performances were investigated by constant current charge-discharge experiment. The results indicated that the low concentration F dopant did not affect the structure of LiFePO4 but considerable improved its electrochemical performances. The LiFe (PO4)0.98F0.06/C materials showed better electrochemical performances than LiFePO4/C. At 0.2 C discharging rate, the LiFe (PO4)0.98F0.06/C materials was capable of delivering reversible specific capacity of 165.1 mAh/g, with fairly stable cycleability. The excellent performance indicates that this mix-doped composite was a very promising cathode material for lithium ion batteries.

The cathode material LiNi2/3Co1/6Mn1/6O2 with excellent electrochemical performance was prepared successfully by a rheological phase method. The materials obtained were characterized by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and charge-discharge tests. The results showed that both calcination temperatures and atmosphere are very important factors affecting the structure and electrochemical performance of LiNi2/3Co1/6Mn1/6O2 material. The sample calcinated at 800 °C under O2 atmosphere displayed well-crystallized particle morphology, a highly ordered layered structure with low defects, and excellent electrochemical performance. In the voltage range of 2.8–4.3 V, it delivered capacity of 188.9 mAh g−1 at 0.2 C and 130.4 mAh g−1 at 5 C, respectively. The capacity retention also reached 93.9% after 50 cycles at 0.5 C. All the results suggest that LiNi2/3Co1/6Mn1/6O2 is a promising cathode material for lithium-ion batteries.

Lithium vanadyl phosphate (β-LiVOPO4) cathode material for lithium ion batteries was prepared via a novel solid state method. The microstructure and electrochemical properties of the sample were characterized by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, galvanostatically discharge/discharge and cyclic voltammetry techniques, respectively. X-ray diffraction patterns showed that β-LiVOPO4 has an orthorhombic structure with space group of Pnma. The discharge capacity of LiVOPO4 sample is 89.9 mAh•g-1 in the first cycle, and in the 50th cycle it is 76.2 mAh•g-1 at the current density of 10 mA•g-1 between 3.0-4.5 V. The chemical diffusion coefficient ( ) value determined from CV is about 10-11 cm2 s-1. Experimental results indicate that further efforts are needed to improve electrochemical performances of LiVOPO4 material synthesized by solid state method; however, it has a higher discharge plateau around 3.9 V.

LiFePO4 as cathode materials for lithium-ion battery were prepared by a liquid-phase method which utilizes FeSO4•7H2O, NH4H2PO4, H2O2, CH3COOLi and glucose as raw materials. The aqueous can be directly used in the synthesis of FePO4•xH2O without any treatment and the ethanol should be distilled before the synthesis of LiFePO4. The result showed that the high purity of FePO4•xH2O can be achieved even prepared with the aqueous which was used for five times. LiFePO4 cathode material prepared with the distilled ethanol exhibited the best initial discharge capacity of 156.3 mAh•g-1 and the capacity retention ratio 99.49% after 30 cycles at 0.1 C rate.

A mixed lithium phosphate LiMn0.6Fe0.4PO4 as cathode material for lithium ion battery was synthesized by solid-state reaction. The crystalline structure, morphology of particles and electrochemical performances of the sample were investigated by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, charge-discharge test and cyclic voltammetry. The results show that the small LiMn0.6Fe0.4PO4 particles are simple pure olive-type phase structure with uniformly distribution of gain size. The LiMn0.6Fe0.4PO4 obtained has a high electrochemical capacity, good cycle ability and excellent stability under high temperature. However, the capacity loss corresponding to 4.0V plateau at high rate, which had been proved by various electrochemical tests, is the main obstacle to its practical application.
