Spinel LiMn2O4 have been prepared by the solution combustion synthesis method using acetate salts as raw materials and acetic acid as fuel. The phase compositions of the as-prepared products were determined by X-ray diffraction (XRD). The electrochemical performance of the products was tested by using a coin-type half battery versus lithium metal foil as anode material. XRD results suggested that the purities of the products prepared at 500oC are higher than these of the products prepared at 600oC. For the products prepared at 500oC, the purities of the products increase with increasing acetic acid ratios. But for the products prepared at 600oC, the purities of the products decrease with increasing acetic acid ratios. The performance tests indicated that the electrochemical performances of the products prepared at 500oC are better than these of the products prepared at 600oC. The product prepared at 500oC with the acetic acid ratio of 1.0 gets the best performance. The initial capacity of it reaches to 124.8mAh/g at the current density of 75mA/g, and after 50 cycles, the capacity retention is 93.7%.

To improve the cyclability of spinel LiMn2O4, Al3+doped LiAlxMn2−xO4(x=0, 0.01, 0.05 and 0.10) materials are prepared using a solution combustion synthesis method using acetic salts as raw materials and acetic acid as fuel. Their phase structures are characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD). Electrochemical performances of the materials are investigated by galvanostatic charge/discharge methods. XRD results reveal that the purity of the samples increases with increasing Al3+content. Electrochemical experiments demonstrate that the charge/discharge cyclability of the LiAlxMn2-xO4increases with increasing Al3+content. Compared with the pristine LiMn2O4, the Al-doped LiAlxMn1−xO4show the obviously improved cyclability, especially for the sample LiAl0.1Mn1.9O4.

LiAl0.1Mn1.9O4 materials were prepared by a solution combustion synthesis method. In order to improve the purity of the products, the effect of further calcination time was investigated. The phase compositions of the as-prepared products were determined by X-ray diffraction (XRD). The electrochemical performance of the products was tested by using a coin-type half battery versus lithium metal foil as anode material. XRD results suggested that the main phase of the products was LiAl0.1Mn1.9O4, and there was a trace amount Mn2O3 impurity in some of the products. The purity, crystallinity and grain size of the LiAl0.1Mn1.9O4 were increased with increasing further calcination time. Electrochemical experiments demonstrate that the initial discharge capacities of the products with further calcination time of 0, 6, 12 and 24h were 93.7, 105.7, 114.0 and 120.6mAh/g, and about 89.8, 89.5, 89.2 and 88.3% of the initial capacities were retained after 25 cycles, respectively. Further calcination time can enhance the initial capacity, but is not favorable for the cycle ability of the products.

In this paper, spinel LiMn2O4 was prepared by the solution combustion synthesis using acetate or nitrate salts as raw materials and acetic acid as fuel. The composition and phase structure are determined by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and the electrochemical performance is tested by using a coin type half-battery versus Li+/Li. The results indicate that the products prepared from acetate salts have higher purities, higher crystallinities and better electrochemical performances than these of the products prepared from nitrate salts. And for the products prepared from acetate salts, the performance becomes worse with increasing acetic acid ratios. Contrarily, for the products prepared from nitrate salts, the performance becomes little better with increasing acetic acid ratios.

In this paper, LiMn2O4 materials were prepared by a solution combustion synthesis method using acetate salts as raw materials and acetic acid as fuel. The effect of further calcination at 500°C and 600°C on the phase structure and composition were investigated. The composition and phase structure are determined by X-ray diffraction (XRD). XRD results indicated that the main phase of the products was LiMn2O4,and there was a trace amount Mn2O3 impurity in the products prepared at 500°C and 600°C. The impurity Mn2O3 in the products prepared at 500°C is increased with increasing calcination time, but the Mn2O3 in the products prepared at 600°C is decreased. The grain sizes of the products prepared at 500°C and 600°C are increased with increasing calcination time, and the grain sizes of the products prepared at 600°C are larger than these of the products prepared at 500°C. The lattice parameters of the products prepared at 500°C and 600°C are smaller than that of LiMn2O4 with perfect crystal, and the lattice parameters of the products are more close to that of LiMn2O4 with perfect crystal.

This work reports the preparation of La2O3 uniformly doped Mo nanopowders with the particle sizes of 40–70 nm by solution combustion synthesis and subsequent hydrogen reduction (SCSHR). To reach this aim, the foam-like MoO2 precursors (20–40 nm in size) with different amounts of La2O3 were first synthesized by a solution combustion synthesis method. Next, these precursors were used to prepare La2O3 doped Mo nanopowders through hydrogen reduction. Thus, the content of La2O3 used for doping can be accurately controlled via the SCSHR route to obtain the desired loading degree. The successful doping of La2O3 into Mo nanopowders with uniform distribution were proved by X-ray photon spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy. The preservation of the original morphology and size of the MoO2 precursor by the La2O3 doped Mo nanopowders was attributed to the pseudomorphic transport mechanism occurring at 600 °C. As shown by X-ray diffraction, the formation of Mo2C impurity, which usually occurs in the direct H2 reduction process, can be avoided by using the Ar calcination-H2 reduction process, when residual carbon is removed by the carbothermal reaction during Ar calcination at 500 °C.

The aim of this work is the synthesis of α-tricalcium phosphate by solution combustion synthesis using urea as combustible in the stoichiometric ratio and with excess of combustible. The salts Ca(O3)2.4H2O and (H4)2HPO4 were used as reaction precursors with Ca/P ratio of 1.5. The pH adjustment was made adding nitric acid. A porous foam composed by β-tricalcium phosphate, hydroxyapatite and α or β-dicalcium pyrophosphate were obtained as reaction product. X-ray diffraction was used to identify the phases. The obtainment of α-TCP was possible after a heat treatment where the material was held at 1250°C for 15 hours followed by quenching. Smaller particle size was obtained when four times the stoichiometric ratio of combustible was used in the reaction. α-TCP samples were immersed in SBF in order to verify the biocompatibility.

Spinel LiMn2O4was synthesized by a solution combustion synthesis using lithium and manganese acetate as raw materials and acetic acid as fuel. The phase composition and micro morphology of the as-prepared products were determined by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electric microscope (SEM). The electrochemical performance of the products was tested by using a coin-type half battery versus lithium metal foil as anode material. XRD analysis suggested that the main phase of the products was LiMn2O4, but there was little impurity Mn2O3in the products. The relative content of Mn2O3was decreased gradually when the molar ratio of Li:Mn: acetic acid increased from 0.5:1:0.5 to 0.5:1:2, but increased again when the molar ratio of Li:Mn: acetic acid was 0.5:1:2.5. The purest product could be prepared when the molar ratio of Li:Mn: acetic acid=0.5:1:2. SEM investigation indicated that the typical crystal structure could not be investigated from the as-prepared products, and the particles were badly agglomerated. Electrochemical performance tests indicated that the specific capacity of the purest product was 108mAh/g. After 30 cycles, the capacity faded only 22% at the current density of 50mA/g, and the average charge/discharge efficiency was ~96%. At the current density of 75mA/g, the initial specific capacity of the purest product was only 72mAh/g, but after 30 cycles, the capacity retention was >92%, exhibiting a good cycling performance.
