Spinel Li4Ti5O12 (LTO) doped with Mg2+ was synthesized by solid-phase reaction method. The Mg2+ doping quantity was 3%, 6%, 9%, and 12%, respectively. The structure and electrochemical performance of the prepared LTO composites were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS), and galvanostatic charge-discharge tests. It was found that the doped Mg ion did not change the structure of Li4Ti5O12, and it was evenly distributed around Li4Ti5O12. When Mg2+ doping quantity increased from 3% to 12%, the internal resistance and charge transfer resistance of the composite both decreased. The first discharge specific capacity of 6%-Mg2+ doped LTO composite was 168 mAh/g, which was close to the theoretical capacity of pure lithium titanate (175 mAh/g), and the capacity retention rate was 98% after 100 cycles.

Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) using a LiFePO4 cathode and graphite anode were assembled in coin cell form and subjected to 1000 charge-discharge cycles at 1, 2, and 5 C at 25 °C. The performance degradation of the LIB cells under different C-rates was analyzed by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and scanning electron microscopy. The most severe degradation occurred at 2 C while degradation was mitigated at the highest C-rate of 5 C. EIS data of the equivalent circuit model provided information on the changes in the internal resistance. The charge-transfer resistance within all the cells increased after the cycle test, with the cell cycled at 2 C presenting the greatest increment in the charge-transfer resistance. Agglomerates were observed on the graphite anodes of the cells cycled at 2 and 5 C; these were more abundantly produced in the former cell. The lower degradation of the cell cycled at 5 C was attributed to the lowered capacity utilization of the anode. The larger cell voltage drop caused by the increased C-rate reduced the electrode potential variation allocated to the net electrochemical reactions, contributing to the charge-discharge specific capacity of the cells.

The aggregation morphology of anode materials plays a vital role in achieving high performance lithium-ion batteries. Herein, Co3O4 anode materials with different aggregation morphologies were successfully prepared by modulating the morphology of precursors with different cobalt sources by the mild coprecipitation method. The fabricated Co3O4 can be flower-like, spherical, irregular, and urchin-like. Detailed investigation on the electrochemical performance demonstrated that flower-like Co3O4 consisting of nanorods exhibited superior performance. The reversible capacity maintained 910.7 mAh·g−1 at 500 mA·g−1 and 717 mAh·g−1 at 1000 mA·g−1 after 500 cycles. The cyclic stability was greatly enhanced, with a capacity retention rate of 92.7% at 500 mA·g−1 and 78.27% at 1000 mA·g−1 after 500 cycles. Electrochemical performance in long-term storage and high temperature conditions was still excellent. The unique aggregation morphology of flower-like Co3O4 yielded a reduction of charge-transfer resistance and stabilization of electrode structure compared with other aggregation morphologies.

Well-dispersed Li-rich Mn-based 0.5Li2MnO3·0.5LiNi0.5Mn0.5O2 nanoparticles with diameter ranging from 50 to 100 nm are synthesized by a hydrothermal method in the presence of N-hexyl pyridinium tetrafluoroborate ionic liquid ([HPy][BF4]). The microstructures and electrochemical performance of the prepared cathode materials are characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and electrochemical measurements. The XRD results show that the sample prepared by ionic-liquid-assisted hydrothermal method exhibits a typical Li-rich Mn-based pure phase and lower cation mixing. SEM and TEM images indicate that the extent of particle agglomeration of the ionic-liquid-assisted sample is lower compared to the traditional hydrothermal sample. Electrochemical test results indicate that the materials synthesized by ionic-liquid-assisted hydrothermal method exhibit better rate capability and cyclability. Besides, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) results suggest that the charge transfer resistance of 0.5Li2MnO3· 0.5LiNi0.5Mn0.5O2 synthesized by ionic-liquid-assisted hydrothermal method is much lower, which enhances the reaction kinetics.

LiMn0.7Fe0.3PO4/C composite cathode material was prepared by using a solid state reaction method. The effects of annealing temperatures on the structural and electrochemical performance of LiMn0.7Fe0.3PO4/C were investigated by using X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM), charge–discharge tests and electrochemical impedance spectra (EIS). The results showed that all of samples have pure ordered olivine phase with orthorhombic Pnma structure. The electrochemical performance of LiMn0.7Fe0.3PO4/C can be improved remarkably with increasing temperature from 550oC to 650 oC due to increased crystallization, cation-order and decreased charge transfer resistance. However, increase temperature to 700 oC leads to bigger crystal particle size and decreased cation-order, thus higher resistance and deteriorated electrochemical properties. The sample prepared at optimized temperature of 650 oC presents a remarkable improved electrochemical performance. It delivers an initial capacity of 125.1 mAhg-1 at 0.2C, 95 mAhg-1 at 5C, and a capacity retention of 98.0% after 30 cycles.

The charging and discharging results indicated that the CMP behaves with higher capacity than AMP. And the EIS analysis showed that a lower charge transfer resistance can be obtained in the CMP. The excellent electrochemical performance verifies the feasibility of MWCNT papers as a promising candidate for the anode in flexible lithium ion battery.

In this study, a dual-phase Li4Ti5O12-TiO2 microrod was successfully prepared using a modified hydrothermal method and calcination process. The stoichiometry of LiOH as precursor was varied at mol ratio of 0.9, 1.1, and 1.3, to obtain the appropriate phase composition between TiO2 and Li4Ti5O12. Results show that TiO2 content has an important role in increasing the specific capacity of electrodes. The refinement of X-ray diffraction patterns by Rietveld analysis confirm that increasing the LiOH stoichiometry suppresses the TiO2 phase. In the scanning electron microscopy images, the microrod morphology was formed after calcination with diameter sizes ranging from 142.34 to 260.62 nm and microrod lengths ranging from 5.03–7.37 μm. The 0.9 LiOH sample shows a prominent electrochemical performance with the largest specific capacity of 162.72 mAh/g and 98.75% retention capacity achieved at a rate capability test of 1 C. This finding can be attributed to the appropriate amount of TiO2 that induced the smaller crystallite size, and lower charge transfer resistance, enhancing the lithium-ion insertion/extraction process and faster diffusion kinetics.

Abstract The high-nickel cathode material of LiNi0.8Co0.15Al0.05O2 (LNCA) has a prospective application for lithium-ion batteries due to the high capacity and low cost. However, the side reaction between the electrolyte and the electrode seriously affects the cycling stability of lithium-ion batteries. In this work, Ni2+ preoxidation and the optimization of calcination temperature were carried out to reduce the cation mixing of LNCA, and solid-phase Al-doping improved the uniformity of element distribution and the orderliness of the layered structure. In addition, the surface of LNCA was homogeneously modified with ZnO coating by a facile wet-chemical route. Compared to the pristine LNCA, the optimized ZnO-coated LNCA showed excellent electrochemical performance with the first discharge-specific capacity of 187.5 mA h g−1, and the capacity retention of 91.3% at 0.2C after 100 cycles. The experiment demonstrated that the improved electrochemical performance of ZnO-coated LNCA is assigned to the surface coating of ZnO which protects LNCA from being corroded by the electrolyte during cycling.

Storage Properties

High-performance lithium–ion batteries (LIBs) are the main development direction of future energy storage devices. However, most LIBs still face a problem of high first irreversible capacity loss. Pre-lithiation technology can increase the content of active lithium source and compensate the loss of active lithium during the first cycle. Adding lithium supplement additive to the cathode provides an effective way to improve the electrochemical performance of LIBs. Here, Li2MoO3 has been investigated as a cathode additive in the full cells. In order to optimize its preparation, Li2MoO3 has been prepared by three different methods, including solid-phase method, liquid-phase method and ultrasonic method. Based on material characterization and electrochemical performance tests, Li2MoO3 material prepared by liquid-phase method shows the best lithium storage properties and chosen as a cathode additive in the LiNi[Formula: see text]Co[Formula: see text]Mn[Formula: see text]O2/SiO@C full cells. The addition of Li2MoO3 has successfully improved the electrochemical performance of the full cell. The first discharge specific capacity increases from 103.9 mAh g[Formula: see text] to 130.4 mAh g[Formula: see text]. In short, Li2MoO3 material is a promising cathode additive for LIBs.

Pyrite utrafine powder was yielded through processing natural pyrite, including gravity separation, flotation and airflow grinding, which the contents of Fe and S are 45.30wt% and 50.95wt% respectively and the mean grain size is 13μm. Pyrite powder modified by fatty acid salt A was investigated by TG/DSC, XPS and XRD. The results indicate that the phase of powder is mostly pyrite FeS2 coating with organic modifier, and S exists in the form of [S2]2- principally on modified pyrite surface. Furthermore, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, cyclic voltammetry measurement and galvanotactic current charge and discharge methods were applied to exhibit the electrochemical performance of pyrite sample. The results show that modified pyrite has lower charge transfer resistance and higher conductivity than that of natural pyrite, and the specific discharge capacity is as high as 850mAh/g under 0.354A current at room temperature and the cutoff of 0.5V closing to the theoretical specific capacity of pyrite (890mA•h/g), and the voltage plateau is 1.44V.

ABSTRACTElectrochemical performance of hybrid supercapacitor (HSC) utilizing surface sculpted Li4Ti5O12 (LTO) insertion electrode having nanoplatelet-like morphology and activated carbon (AC) electrode is investigated for energy storage application. Cyclic voltammetry (CV) at variable scan rates 0.5 to 60 mV.s-1 in the 0-3.2 V range show pseusocapacitive behavior and fast rate of current change indicating rapid Faradaic kinetics. Nyquist impedance study show charge transfer resistance due to kinetic effects of electron transfer and Li+ de-intercalation process at the LTO anode. Low capacity (0.2 C-1C) charge-discharge (CD) curves show high Coulomb efficiency with marginal reduction at high 5-10 C rates due to irreversibility of adsorbed PF6 anions at the electrolyte-AC interface. Galvanostatic CD cycling tests over 50 cycles at different C-rates show decline in storage capacity due to electrode polarization effects. Reduction, broadening and shift of the Raman line at 678 cm-1 from Ti-O bonds in TiO6 octahedra after cycling indicates Li insertion reactions in functioning of hybrid supercapacitor. The hybrid supercapacitor cells have shown energy density, 29 Wh.kg-1 and power density, 350 W.kg-1.
