The annealing temperature during coating process shows a strong impact on the surface morphology and chemical composition of Li(Ni0.6 Co0.2 Mn0.2)O2. The 600-?C annealed material exhibits the best cyclic stability at high charging cut-off voltage of 4.5 V(versus Li+/Li) with the capacity retention of 90.9% after 100 cycles, which is much higher than that of bare material(79%). Moreover, the rate capability and thermal stability are also improved by Li1.4Al0.4Ti1.6(PO4)3coating. The enhanced performance can be attributed to the improved stability of interface between Ba0.8Sr0.2FeO3-δand electrolyte by Li1.4Al0.4Ti1.6(PO4)3modification. The results of this work provide a possible method to design reliable cathode materials to achieve high energy density and long cycle life.展开更多

However, the poor intrinsic electronic conductivity and large volume change during lithium intercalation/de-intercalation restrict its practical applications. Fabrication of SiO/C composites is an effective way to overcome these problems. Herein, a series of micro-sized SiO@C/graphite(Si0@C/G) composite anode materials, with designed capacity of 600 mAh·g-1, are successfully prepared through a pitch pyrolysis reaction method. The electrochemical performance of SiO@C/G composite anodes with different carbon coating contents of 5 wt%, 10 wt%, 15 wt%, and 35 wt% is investigated. The results show that the SiO@C/G composite with15-wt% carbon coating content exhibits the best cycle performance, with a high capacity retention of 90.7% at 25℃ and90.1% at 45 0 C after 100 cycles in full cells with LiNi0.5Co0.2Mn0.3O2 as cathodes. The scanning electron microscope(SEM) and electrochemistry impedance spectroscopy(EIS) results suggest that a moderate carbon coating layer can promote the formation of stable SEI film, which is favorable for maintaining good interfacial conductivity and thus enhancing the cycling stability of SiO electrode.展开更多

Based on the deformation behavior and microstructural evolution of superalloy GH4742, different types of instability criteria of Prasad, Gegel, Malas, Murty and Semiatin were compared, and the physical significance of parameters was analyzed. Meanwhile, the processing maps with different instability criteria were obtained. It was shown that instability did not occur when average power dissipation rate was larger than 50% in the temperature range of 1020- 1130℃, corresponding to the strain rate range of 5 × 10-4-3.2 × 10-3 s-1. The domain is appropriate for the processing deformation of superalloy GH4742.展开更多
