Abstract: | Mixed NCM (nikel, cobalt, and manganese) powder was treated by a reactive gas from dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) to prepare a cathode material in Lithium ion (Li-ion) battery. The DBD was mainly sustained using N2 gas at atmospheric pressure, and NF3, SF6, and H2 was fed into the discharge to create the reactive gas. Compare to the non-treated sample, impurities on the surface of the NCM powder were significantly removed in a 5 min when the reactive gas was blow into the powder and mixed properly. F atom content on the surface was increased depending on the time duration of mixing, which form a LiF layer on the surface. Desirable LiF layer suppress a heat flow effectively , resulting a decreasing of exothermic temperature inside the Li-ion battery. Additionally, the treatment of NCM powder employing DBD technique was also contributed to electrochemical performance, which was confirmed by c-rate testing. |
