摘要
An environmentally friendly method for the synthesis of LiMnPO_(4)/C anode material for lithium-ion batteries by solvothermal method is introduced.The modification of the morphology of this precursor is altered by changing the ratio of the conditioning solvent(water-ethylene glycol solution)and the order of material addition.Ethylene glycol(EG)exerts a considerable influence on synthesizing LiMnPO_(4)/C flake-like nanocrystal,which benefits the extraction/insertion reaction of lithium ions and improves the electrochemical activity and electrochemical performance of LiMnPO_(4)/C material.When the solvent composition is H_(2)O:EG=1:3,exhibiting exceptional charge/discharge performance and rate capability,the specific discharge capacities are 155.8,153.7,148.8,141.4,129.5,and 112.6 mAh g^(−1) at the 0.1,0.2,0.5,1,2,and 5 C rates,respectively.When the charge-discharge rate returns to 0.1 C,the LiMnPO_(4)/C material shows a reversible discharge specific capacity of 153.7 mAh g^(−1).Differential scanning calorimetry(DSC)tests verify that the thermodynamic stability of the prepared LiMnPO_(4)/C(LMP)and commercial LiFePO_(4)(LFP)materials is better than that of commercial nickel-cobalt-aluminum(NCA)ternary materials.These prepared LiMnPO_(4)/C composites have high electrochemical capacity and cycle stability.
