Oxygen Evolution in Overcharged LixNi1/3Co1/3Mn1/3O2 Electrode and Its Thermal Analysis Kinetics

The oxygen evolution behavior in overcharged LiNi_1/3Co_1/3Mn_1/3O₂‐based electrode was investigated by differential scanning calorimetry and thermal gravimetric (DSC/TG). Meantime, its thermal kinetic parameters were calculated by Kissinger's and Ozawa's method. As observed by DSC/TG, two exothermic peaks at 239 and 313°C in washed cathode (4.6 V), were attributed to two steps of oxygen evolution. More importantly, the temperature of its oxygen release processes decreased obviously compared with that charged to 2.8 V. Activation energy (E) for the first and second oxygen evolution, both of which were assumed closely to be the first order reaction, between 200 and 350°C in Li_0.204Ni_1/3Co_1/3Mn_1/3O₂‐based electrode were calculated as 113.63 and 158.13 kJ·mol⁻¹, respectively and the corresponding Arrhenius pre‐exponential factors (A) of 1.05×10¹¹ and 6.46×10¹³s⁻¹ were also obtained. The different energy barrier of such two steps of oxygen evolution should probably be ascribed to the different bond energy of M–O (M=Mn, Co, Ni).

Effect of Various Synthesis methods on the Electrochemical Properties of LiNi1/3Co1/3Mn1/3O2

Layered LiNi1/3Co1/3Mn1/3O2 has the isostructure of α-NaFeO2 and shows high rate capacity with stable cycleability. Furthermore, the thermal behavior of this material is milder than that of lithium nickel oxide and lithium cobalt oxide. In addition, it is expected to be stable at elevated temperatures. Therefore LiNi1/3Co1/3Mn1/3O2 may be the most promising cathode materials of lithium-ion secondary battery.In this research, LiNi1/3Co1/3Mn1/3O2 was prepared by solid-state reaction, sol-gel method and mixed hydroxide method. The influences of synthesis method on the physical and electrochemical properties of LiNi1/3Co1/3Mn1/3O2 were characterized by means of X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), scanning electron microscope (SEM), charge/discharge cycling cyclic voltammetry and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). XPS studies show that the predominant oxidation states of Ni, Co and Mn in the LiNi1/3Co1/3Mn1/3O2 compound are 2+, 3+ and 4+. From the voltage profile and cyclic voltammetry, the redox processes occurring at ～3.8V and ～4.5V are assigned to the Ni2+/Ni3+ and Co3+/Co4+ couples, respectively. Different preparation methods result in the difference in morphology (shape, particle size and specific surface area) and electrochemical behaviors. A sample prepared by solid-state reaction has the worst electrochemical performance among these three methods. Sample synthesized by mixed hydroxide method displays the better rate capacity than that prepared by sol-gel method, while the capacity retention of sample prepared by sol-gel method is superior to that synthesized by mixed hydroxide method.
