The structure and electrochemical characteristics of La0.67Mg0.33 (Ni0.8Co0.1Mn0.1) x (x=2.5–5.0) multiphase alloys for nickel-metal hydride batteries

This paper presents results concerning structure and electrochemical characteristics of the La_0.67Mg_0.33 (Ni_0.8Co_0.1Mn_0.1) _x (x=2.5–5.0) alloy. It can be found from the result of the Rietveld analyses that the structures of the alloys change obviously with increasing x from 2.5 to 5.0. The main phase of the alloys with x=2.5–3.5 is LaMg₂Ni₉ phase with a PuNi₃-type rhombohedral structure, but the main phase of the alloys with x=4.0–5.0 is LaNi₅phase with a CaCu₅-type hexagonal structure. Furthermore, the phase ratio, lattice parameter and cell volume of the LaMg₂Ni₉phase and the LaNi₅ phase change with increasing x. The electrochemical studies show that the maximum discharge capacity increases from 214.7 mAh/g (x=2.5) to 391.1 mAh/g (x=3.5) and then decreases to 238.5 mAh/g (x=5.0). As the discharge current density is 1,200 mA/g, the high rate dischargeability (HRD) increases from 51.1% (x=2.5) to 83.7% (x=3.5) and then decreases to 71.6% (x=5.0). Moreover, the exchange current density (I ₀) of the alloy electrodes first increases and then decrease with increasing x from 2.5 to 5.0, which is consistent with the variation of the HRD. The cell volume reduces with increasing x in the alloys, which is detrimental to hydrogen diffusion and accordingly decreases the low-temperature dischargeability of the alloy electrodes.

It was found that the discharge capacities were improved with addition of a small amount of Zr and the cycle performances of the alloy were stabilized with the addition of Ti. The effects of surface modification or coating on the properties of Mg0.9Ti0.06Zr0.04Ni were also studied. The results indicated that coating with graphite improved both the discharge capacity and cycle life of the amorphous Mg0.9Ti0.06Zr0.04Ni electrode.

(Nd(1.5)Mg(0.5))Ni7-based compounds: structural and hydrogen storage properties

The structural and hydrogen storage properties of (Nd(1.5)Mg(0.5))Ni(7)-based alloys (i.e., A(2)B(7)-type) with a coexistence of two structures (hexagonal 2H and rhombohedral 3R) are investigated in this study. In both 2H- and 3R-type A(2)B(7) structures, Mg atoms occupy Nd sites of Laves-type AB(2) subunits rather than those of AB(5) subunits because Mg substitution for Nd in the AB(2) subunits more significantly strengthens the ionic bond in the system. An increase in the A-atomic radius or the B-atomic radius stabilizes the 2H structure, but a decrease in the A-atomic radius or the B-atomic radius is favorable for formation of the 3R structure. The 2H-A(2)B(7) and 3R-A(2)B(7) phases in each alloy have quite similar equilibrium pressures upon hydrogen absorption and desorption, which show a linear relationship with the average subunit volume. The hydriding enthalpy for the (Nd(1.5)Mg(0.5))Ni(7) compound is about -29.4 kJ/mol H(2) and becomes more negative with partial substitution of La for Nd and Co/Cu for Ni but less negative with partial substitution of Y for Nd.

Synthesis and characterization of Li[(Ni0.8Co0.1Mn0.1)0.8(Ni0.5Mn0.5)0.2]O2 with the microscale core-shell structure as the positive electrode material for lithium batteries

The high capacity of Ni-rich Li[Ni(1-x)M(x)]O(2) (M = Co, Mn) is very attractive, if the structural instability and thermal properties are improved. Li[Ni(0.5)Mn(0.5)]O(2) has good thermal and structural stabilities, but it has a low capacity and rate capability relative to the Ni-rich Li[Ni(1-x)M(x)]O(2). We synthesized a spherical core-shell structure with a high capacity (from the Li[Ni(0.8)Co(0.1)Mn(0.1)]O(2) core) and a good thermal stability (from the Li[Ni(0.5)Mn(0.5)]O(2) shell). This report is about the microscale spherical core-shell structure, that is, Li[Ni(0.8)Co(0.1)Mn(0.1)]O(2) as the core and a Li[Ni(0.5)Mn(0.5)]O(2) as the shell. A high capacity was delivered from the Li[Ni(0.8)Co(0.1)Mn(0.1)]O(2) core, and a high thermal stability was achieved by the Li[Ni(0.5)Mn(0.5)]O(2) shell. The core-shell structured Li[(Ni(0.8)Co(0.1)Mn(0.1))(0.8)(Ni(0.5)Mn(0.5))(0.2)]O(2)/carbon cell had a superior cyclability and thermal stability relative to the Li[Ni(0.8)Co(0.1)Mn(0.1)]O(2) at the 1 C rate for 500 cycles. The core-shell structured Li[(Ni(0.8)Co(0.1)Mn(0.1))(0.8)(Ni(0.5)Mn(0.5))(0.2)]O(2) as a new positive electrode material is a significant breakthrough in the development of high-capacity lithium batteries.

Novel core-shell-structured Li[(Ni0.8Co0.2)0.8(Ni0.5Mn0.5)0.2]O2 via coprecipitation as positive electrode material for lithium secondary batteries

We have successfully synthesized a spherical core-shell structure based on Li[(Ni0.8Co0.2)0.8(Ni0.5Mn0.5)0.2]O2 via a coprecipitation route. According to the careful examination by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy energy-dispersive spectroscopy (TEM-EDS), and X-ray diffraction (XRD), it was found that the core-shell particle consisted of Li[Ni0.8Co0.2]O2 as the core and Li[Ni0.5Mn0.5]O2 as the shell, of which the thickness was estimated to be 1 to approximately 1.5 microm. Both the core and shell were dense as confirmed by SEM. Though the core-shell-structured Li[(Ni0.8Co0.2)0.8(Ni0.5Mn0.5)0.2]O2 delivered a slightly reduced initial discharge capacity, the capacity retention and thermal stability were significantly improved relative to those of the Li[Ni0.8Co0.2]O2 electrode without the Li[Ni0.5Mn0.5]O2 shell. The carbon/Li[Ni0.8Co0.2]O2 pouch cell underwent an explosive ignition during the nail penetration test, whereas the carbon/Li[(Ni0.8Co0.2)0.8(Ni0.5Mn0.5)0.2]O2 cell remained stable, demonstrating the superior thermal stability of the core-shell electrode. As a new positive electrode material, the core-shell-structured Li[(Ni0.8Co0.2)0.8(Ni0.5Mn0.5)0.2]O2 is a significant breakthrough in the development of high-capacity lithium secondary batteries.
