Cobalt was only doped into the surface of LiMn2O4 spinel. XPS(X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy) analysis confirms the valence state of Co3+. COMSM has stable spinel structure and can prevent active materials from the corrosion of electrolyte. The ICP(inductively coupled plasma) determination of the spinel dissolution in electrolyte showed the content of Mn dissolved from COMSM was smaller than that from the pure spinel. AC impedance patterns show that the charge-transfer resistance (Ret) for COMSM is smaller than that for pure spinel. The particles of COMSM are bigger in size than those of pure spinel according to the micrographs of SEM(scanning electron microscopy). The determinations of the electrochemical characterization show that COMSM has both good cycling performance and high initial capacity of 124.1 mA/h at an average capacity loss of 0.19 mAh/g per cycle.展开更多

The structures and characteristics of LiNi0. 45 Co0.10 Mn0. 45 O2, LiCoO2 and LiMn2 O4 were investigated by XRD, SEM and electrochemical measurements. The results show that LiNi0.4s Co0.10 Mn0. 45 O2 has a layered structure with hexagonal lattice. The commercial LicoO2 has sphere-like appearance and smooth surfaces, while the LiMn2 O4 and LiNi0.45 Co0. 10 Mn0. 45 O2 consist of cornered and uneven particles. LiNi0. 45 Co0.10 Mn0. 45 O2 has a large disLiMn2 O4 and LiCoO2, respectively. LiCoO2 and LiMn2 O4 have higher discharge voltage and better rate-capability than LiNi0. 45Co0.10 Mn0. 45 O2. All the three cathodes have excellent cycling performance with capacity retention of above 89.3 % at the 250th cycle. Batteries with LiMn2 O4 or LiNi0.45 Co0.10 Mn0. 45 O2 cathodes show better safety performance under abusive conditions than those with LiCoO2 cathodes.展开更多
