LiV3O8 layered structure was successfully synthesized by a conventional solid-state approach and subsequent heat-treated at 400, 450, 500 and 550 oC. The samples were characterized by XRD, SEM, TEM, BET. Electrochemical performance of LiV3O8 was investigated by cyclic voltammetry (CV) and galvanostatic charge-discharge. The results showed that high purity of LiV3O8 with layered structure was formed. The morphology of the samples were mixed between nanorods and nanosheets structure. For electrochemical performance, results showed that LiV3O8 heat-treated at 500 oC performed a highest charge and discharge capacity of 212 and 172 mAh g-1, respectively. From electrochemical performance results made them a good candidate for cathode material for lithium-ion batteries application.

In the present work, the effect of temperature and additives on the ionic conductivity of mixed organic/ionic liquid electrolytes (MOILEs) was investigated by conducting galvanostatic charge/discharge and ionic conductivity experiments. The mixed electrolyte is based on the ionic liquid (IL) (EMI/TFSI/LiTFSI) and organic solvents EC/DMC (1:1 v/v). The effect of electrolyte type on the electrochemical performance of a LiCoO2 cathode and a SnO2/C composite anode in lithium anode (or cathode) half-cells was also investigated. The results demonstrated that the addition of 5 wt.% succinonitrile (SN) resulted in enhanced ionic conductivity of a 60% EMI-TFSI 40% EC/DMC MOILE from ~14 mS·cm−1 to ~26 mS·cm−1 at room temperature. Additionally, at a temperature of 100 °C, an increase in ionic conductivity from ~38 to ~69 mS·cm−1 was observed for the MOILE with 5 wt% SN. The improvement in the ionic conductivity is attributed to the high polarity of SN and its ability to dissolve various types of salts such as LiTFSI. The galvanostatic charge/discharge results showed that the LiCoO2 cathode with the MOILE (without SN) exhibited a 39% specific capacity loss at the 50th cycle while the LiCoO2 cathode in the MOILE with 5 wt.% SN showed a decrease in specific capacity of only 14%. The addition of 5 wt.% SN to the MOILE with a SnO2/C composite-fiber anode resulted in improved cycling performance and rate capability of the SnO2/C composite-membrane anode in lithium anode half-cells. Based on the results reported in this work, a new avenue and promising outcome for the future use of MOILEs with SN in lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) can be opened.

Many studies show spinel LiMn2O4 is one of the most promising cathode materials for lithium ion batteries. At present, urgent need is that capacity attenuation in the process of charge / discharge and cycle stability at high temperature are developed. The methods can be classified into bulk doped, surface coated and nanometer particles. Research progress about improving the electrochemical performance of spinel LiMn2O4 is summarized and further research trend is pointed out in this paper.

The evolution of the 003 reflection of the layered Li(Ni,Co,Mn)O2 (CGR) and Li(Ni,Co,Al)O2 (NCR) cathodes in commercial 18650 lithium-ion batteries during charge/discharge were determined using in situ neutron powder diffraction. The 003 reflection is chosen as it is the stacking axis of the layered structure and shows the largest change during charge/discharge. The comparison between these two cathodes shows that the NCR cathode exhibits an unusual contraction near the charged state and during the potentiostatic step, where the potentiostatic step is recommended by the manufacturer. This feature is not shown to the same degree by the CGR cathode. The behavior is likely related to the compositions of these cathodes, the amount of Li/Ni site mixing and the presence of Al or Mn.

A promising anode material for lithium ion batteries is reported in this paper. It is one-dimensional SnO2−graphene composite nanofibers (SnO2−G nanofibers) fabricated by using electrospinning technique. In the study, X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) are used to characterize its structural and morphological properties. Samples with different ratio of SnO2 to graphene (wt%) are prepared to investigate its electrochemical performance. Galvanostatic charge/discharge tests reveals that Li-insertion/extraction is carried out through a two-phase reaction mechanism that is supported by galvanostatic charge−discharge profiles. It is found that the optimal proportion of SnO2 to graphene is 8:1 (wt%) for the electrospun composite materials. Furthermore, micro thin film batteries have been fabricated and tested. The results show that initial discharge capacity is 301.86 mA h g−1 at current density of 50 μA g−1, and battery can retain 63.3% of reversible capacity after 300 cycles, which is 5 times higher than bare SnO2.
