LiCoO2的固相配位化学合成

Studies on Synthesis and Electrochemical Performance of Li1+δNi1-xCoxO2-yFy Cathode Materials for Lithium-ion Rechargeable Batteries

It is a technological problem of LiNiO2 cathode material for lithium-ion secondary batteries because of the difficult preparation and hard purification, instable performance, remarkable capacity fading at initial discharge, worse thermal stability and safety of Ni-series cathode materials,and it is also the key factor of hindering LiNiO2 cathode material from practical applications.Recently, by doping some metal cations such as Co, Mn, Mg, Al, Cr and so on[1-5] into LiNiO2, the preparation difficulty and the purification hardness can be obviously improved, and the initial irreversible discharge capacity can be reduced, and the ratio of the initial discharge to charge capacity can be enhanced. But the cyclic stability, thermal stability and safety of LiNiO2 are not enough to satisfy the demand of commercial use.At present, the synthesis of LiNiO2 cathode material must be sintered under oxygen atmosphere in most cases, and the improved effect of fluoride doping on the electrochemical properties of LiNiO2 has seldom been reported in the literatures.In this paper, the cobalt cation and fluorine anion co-doping cathode materials Li1+δNi1-xCoxO2-yFy( 0≤δ≤0.2, 0≤x≤0.5, 0≤y≤0.1 ) were synthesized by solid state reaction method at 650℃ ～750℃ under air atmosphere, and characterized by XRD、 SEM、 TEM、 BET、 laser particle-size distribution measurement and electrochemical performance testing, the effect of different nickel sources on the properties of as-synthesized cathode materials was investigated. The results demonstrated that the cobalt and fluorine ions co-doping cathode materials Li1+δNi1-xCoxO2-yFy have complete layered structure, uniform surface morphology and better particle-size distribution as well as excellent electrochemical performances. At 20～25℃, 0.15～0.25mA charge and discharge current,4.25～2.70V cut-off voltage, 0.2～0.5C charge and discharge rate and 0.2～0.5 mA/cm2 current density,LiNi0.8Co0.2O1.95F0.05 cathode material has higher initial charge and discharge capacity and better cyclic properties which can be mainly attributed to the doping of the higher electronegativity fluorine which improves the structural stability and the synergistic reaction of cobalt and fluorine ions co-doping on the cathode materials. Under the above conditions, the initial charge and discharge capacity of LiNi0.8Co0.2O1.95F0.05 is 165.70mAh/g and 146.10mAh/g, respectively. After 50 cycles, it has more than 140mAh/g of discharge capacity and displays preliminary application possibility in the future.     

Nanosize effect on high-rate Li-ion intercalation in LiCoO2 electrode

Recently, battery technology has come to require a higher rate capability. The main difficulty in high-rate charge-discharge experiments is kinetic problems due to the slow diffusion of Li-ions in electrodes. Nanosizing is a popular way to achieve a higher surface area and shorter Li-ion diffusion length for fast diffusion. However, while various nanoelectrodes that provide excellent high-rate capability have been synthesized, a size-controlled synthesis and a systematic study of nanocrystalline LiCoO2 have not been carried out because of the difficulty in controlling the size. We have established the size-controlled synthesis of nanocrystalline LiCoO2 through a hydrothermal reaction and, for the first time, clarified the structural and electrochemical properties of this intercalation cathode material. Lattice expansion in nanocrystalline LiCoO2 was found from powder X-ray diffraction measurements and Raman spectroscopy. Electrochemical measurements and theoretical analyses on nanocrystalline LiCoO2 revealed that extreme size reduction below 15 nm was not favorable for most applications. An excellent high-rate capability (65% of the 1 C rate capability at 100 C) was observed in nanocrystalline LiCoO2 with an appropriate particle size of 17 nm.

Synthesis and electrochemical properties of nanostructured LiCoO2 fibers as cathode materials for lithium-ion batteries

Nanostructured LiCoO2 fibers were prepared by the sol-gel related electrospinning technique using metal acetate and citric acid as starting materials. The transformation from the xerogel fibers to the LiCoO2 fibers and the nanostructure of LiCoO2 fibers have been investigated in detail. The LiCoO2 fibers with 500 nm to 2 mum in diameter were composed of polycrystalline nanoparticles in sizes of 20-35 nm. Cyclic voltammetry and charge-discharge experiments were applied to characterize the electrochemical properties of the fibers as cathode materials for lithium-ion batteries. The cyclic voltammogram curves indicated faster diffusion and migration of Li+ cations in the nanostructured LiCoO2 fiber electrode. In the first charge-discharge process, the LiCoO2 fibers showed the initial charge and discharge capacities of 216 and 182 (mA.h)/g, respectively. After the 20th cycle, the discharge capacity decreased to 123 (mA.h)/g. The X-ray diffraction and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy analyses indicated that the large loss of capacity of fiber electrode during the charge-discharge process might mainly result from the dissolution of cobalt and lithium cations escaping from LiCoO2 to form the crystalline Li2CO3 and CoF2 impurities.

Influences of synthesis route and preparation process on the electrochemical properties of Fe-doped strontium cobaltite

SrCo_0.8Fe_0.2O_3-δ (SCF), as a promising cathode material for intermediate temperature solid oxide fuel cells, possesses a high catalytic activity for the reduction of O₂ to 2O²⁻. The SCF powder was successfully synthesized by the solid state reaction method and Pechini method and characterized using XRD, particle analysis, and electrochemical performance measurements. Smaller-particle-size SCF materials (SCF-P) with single phase are obtained at lower synthesis temperature by the Pechini method and possess better electrochemical performance as compared with those prepared by the solid state reaction method. The reason is that the Pechini method involves the mixing of elements at atomic level, so pure SCF phase formation can be accelerated and showed high electrocatalytic activity. The preparation procedure of SCF cathode was firstly investigated using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. Results show that the total polarization resistance and the low-frequency resistance decrease gradually with the reduction of the calcination temperature for the SCF cathodes. The SCF-P cathode sintered at 1,000 °C possesses the highest porosity and the best electrochemical performance. It is the result of a comprehensive function of three-phase boundary length, porosity of cathode, and the adhesion between cathode and electrolyte. The charge-transfer process, together with the adsorption, dissociation, and diffusion of oxygen, has a strong influence on the whole reaction process of the cathode. The influence of binder amounts on the performance of the SCF-P cathodes was also studied.

以LiCoO2为阴极的全固态薄膜锂电池的研究

Amorphous and oriented polycrystalline LiCoO2 thin films, used as cathode material for an all-solid-state thin film battery, were fabricated by using RF magnetron sputtering and annealed at different temperatures. The morphology and structure of LiCoO2 thin films were characterized by scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction. All-solid-state thin film batteries, comprised of LiCoO2 cathode films with different structures, lithium phosphorous oxynitride electrolyte film and metallic lithium anode film, was successfully prepared and their properties were examined by chronopotentiometry. Results showed that the structure and crystallinity of the LiCoO2 films strongly influenced the electrochemical performance of all-solid-state thin film lithium batteries. Worth nothing was the battery with an oriented polycrystalline LiCoO2 film it exhibited the best electrochemical performance, and delivered a discharge capacity of ～55.4 μAh/cm2μm. Furthermore, when subjected to over 450 charge/discharge cycles, that battery suffered no obvious fode in capacity.     

Electrochemical and electronic properties of LiCoO2 cathode investigated by galvanostatic cycling and EIS

The processes of extraction and insertion of lithium ions in LiCoO(2) cathode are investigated by galvanostatic cycling and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) at different potentials during the first charge/discharge cycle and at different temperatures after 10 charge/discharge cycles. The spectra exhibit three semicircles and a slightly inclined line that appear successively as the frequency decreases. An appropriate equivalent circuit is proposed to fit the experimental EIS data. Based on detailed analysis of the change in kinetic parameters obtained from simulating the experimental EIS data as functions of potential and temperature, the high-frequency, the middle-frequency, and the low-frequency semicircles can be attributed to the migration of the lithium ions through the SEI film, the electronic properties of the material and the charge transfer step, respectively. The slightly inclined line arises from the solid state diffusion process. The electrical conductivity of the layered LiCoO(2) changes dramatically at early delithiation as a result of a polaron-to-metal transition. In an electrolyte solution of 1 mol L(-1) LiPF(6)-EC (ethylene carbonate)?:DMC (dimethyl carbonate), the activation energy of the ion jump (which is related to the migration of the lithium ions through the SEI film), the thermal activation energy of the electrical conductivity and the activation energy of the intercalation/deintercalation reaction are 37.7, 39.1 and 69.0 kJ mol(-1), respectively.

Preparation and characterization of LiMn2-yCoyO4 spinels by low heating solid state coordination method

Cathode material LiMn2-yCoyO4 spinels were prepared by annealing the mixed precursors, which were synthesized by a low heating solid state coordination method using lithium acetate, manganese acetate, cobalt acetate, and oxalic acid as original materials. The structures and morphologies of the LiMn2-yCoyO4 spinels were investigated as a function of annealing temperature and time. The results showed that all samples in different annealing temperature and time had the same spinel structure. There were some growth and agglomeration in the particles when annealing temperature increased from 450 to 650 degrees C. And the crystal structure was more perfect at the upper temperature. In addition, the electrochemical properties of LiMn2-yCoyO4 spinels used as cathode material for lithium-ion batteries were studied in detail in this paper.

Novel application of LiCoO_2 as a high-performance candidate material for supercapacitor

Electrochemical performances of LiCoO2 as a candidate material for supercapacitor are systematically investigated. LiCoO2 nanomaterials are synthesized via hydrothermal reaction with consequent calcination process. And the particle size increases as the calcination temperature rises.LCO-650 sample with the largest particle size displays the maximum capacitances of 817.5 Fg-1with the most outstanding capacity retention rate of 96.8% after 2000 cycles. It is shown that large particle size is beneficial to the electrochemical and structural stability of Li CoO2 materials. We speculate that the micron-sized waste LiCoO2 materials have great potential for supercapacitor application. It may provide a novel recovered approach for spent LIBs and effectively relieve the burdens on the resource waste and environment pollution.

Template-synthesized LiCoO2, LiMn2O4, and LiNi0.8 Co0.2 O2 nanotubes as the cathode materials of lithium ion batteries

The first point of this work is to synthesize LiCoO2, LiNi0.8 Co0.2 O2, and LiMn2O4 nanotubes with the template of porous anodic aluminum oxide by thermal decomposition of sol-gel precursors. The as-synthesized materials were open-ended nanotubes with uniform shape and size based on the analysis of scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and X-ray diffraction. An "in situ reaction from nanoparticle to nanotube" mechanism was discussed for the formation process of the nanotubes. The second point of this paper is to investigate the electrochemical properties of the as-synthesized nanotubes for the cathode materials of lithium ion batteries. It was found that the nanotube electrodes exhibited better reversibility and higher discharge capacities than that of their nanocrystalline counterparts. The reason for the improved electrochemical performance of the nanotube electrodes was also interpreted.

Preparation of Spinel Cathode Materials Li1+xMn2-xO4 by In-situ Redox Precipitation Method for Lithium Rechargeable Batteries

Spinel Li_1+xMn_2-xO₄ has been studied extensively as a promising cathode material for lithium rechargeable batteries with high energy density due to the following advantages. (1) it is less expensive; (2) it is less toxic; (3) it is easier to prepare than layered LiCoO₂ and LiNiO₂. The preparation methods have important and remarkable effects on the electrochemical properties of spinel Li_1+xMn_2-xO₄ cathode material. Li1+,Mn2_x04 powders are typically synthesized by solid state reaction which consists of extensively mechanical mixing and intermitted grinding^[1,2]. This treatment is detrimental to the quality of the final product because of the resulting inhomogeneity, irregular morphology, larger particle size with broader particle diameter distribution, and poor control of stoichiometry resulted from lithium loss at high temperature for long time. In order to achieve good efficiency of lithium utilization at high current and high reliability of lithium rechargeable batteries, we developed a new synthesis process which was called as in-situ redox precipitation method^[3]. By this method, the Li_1+xMn_2-xO₄ cathode material with good homogeneity, uniform morphology and narrow particle-size distribution as well as excellent electrochemical performance can be easily produced at lower temperature and in a shorter processing time. In this paper, our partial findings were reported.     

Investigation on mechanism of catalysis by Pt-LiCoO2 for hydrolysis of sodium borohydride using X-ray absorption

The synthesis of platinum nanoparticle loaded LiCoO2 (Pt-LiCoO2) was carried out successfully by an impregnation method followed by sintering at different temperatures. The catalytic role of Pt-LiCoO2 composite in hydrogen generation during hydrolysis of sodium borohydride (NaBH4) was studied for fuel cell applications. X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectroscopy (ICP-AES) have been used to elucidate the structural and catalytic properties of Pt-LiCoO2. It was found that the 15 wt % of Pt nanoparticles on LiCoO2 sintered at 450 degrees C support showed the maximum efficiency for the catalysis reaction of hydrogen production. X-ray absorption near edge structure (XANES) analysis and extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) analysis using a synchrotron radiation source were performed to carry out ex situ measurements in order to understand the mechanism of the catalytic process for the production of hydrogen during the hydrolysis of NaBH4. Co K-edge XANES showed a small percentage of cobalt in the metallic form after hydrogen generation which suggests the reduction of the cobalt during the hydrolysis of NaBH4.
