以过渡金属乙酸盐和氢氧化锂为原料,采用共沉淀方法制备了锂离子电池富锂正极材料Li[Li0.2Mn0.54Yi0.13Co0.13]O2并对该材料进行表面包碳.X射线衍射技术(XRD)、扫描电子显微技术(SEM)实验数据表明,该材料具有层状α—NaFeO2结构.包碳后材料结构没有变化,表面覆盖上一层纳米级别的颗粒.电化学性能测试结果表明该材料包碳后在0.1C(1C=180mA/g),2.0—4.8V电位范围内首次放电比容量高达259.0mAh/g.包碳后首次放电比容量,倍率性能,循环性能均得到提高.采用电化学阻抗谱(EIS)研究包碳前后该材料的传荷阻抗,结果显示碳包覆材料的传荷阻抗明显减小,电子电导率得到提高,从而提高电化学性能.
Li [ Li0.2 Mn0.54 Ni0.13 Co0.13 ]O2 cathode material was successfully prepared by co-precipitation method using transition metal ace-rate and lithium hydroxide as starting materials.The surface &cathode material was modified with carbon.The cathode material was charac terized by XRD and SEM techniques.The results showed that Li[Li0.2Mn0.54Ni0.13Co0.13]O2 has α-NaFeO2 layered structure and that carbon coating did not cause structure change.Electrochemical measurements showed that the carbon-coated material was able to deliver higher initial discharge specific capacities of 259.0mAh/g in the voltage range 2.0-4.8V at 0.1C(1C=180mA/g)rate.Besides the rate capability,the cycling performance was also improved after carbon coating.EIS technique was utilized to investigate the charge transfer resistance of the pristine and carbon-coated materials.The results showed that the carbon-coated material displaied lower charge transfer resistance,which contributed to the improved electrochemical performance.
