The amount of carbon in the composite is less than 10% (mass fraction), and the X-ray diffraction result confirms that the sample is of pure single phase indexed with the orthorhombic Pmn21 space group. The particle size of the Li2FeSiO4/C synthesized at 700 °C for 9 h is very fine and spherical-like with a size of 200 nm. The electrochemical performance of this material, including reversible capacity, cycle number, and charge-discharge characteristics, were tested. The cell of this sample can deliver a discharge capacity of 166 mA-h/g at C/20 rate in the first three cycles. After 30 cycles, the capacity decreases to 158 mA-h/g, and the capacity retention is up to 95%. The results show that this method can prepare nanosphere-like Li2FeSiO4/C composite with good electrochemical performance.展开更多

The effects of calcination temperature and refluxing system on the composition and properties of lithium silicate were investigated. The samples were characterized by TGA/DTA, XRD, SEM and particle size analysis. Li2FeSiO4 was prepared by the solid-state reaction between Li2SiO3 and FeC2O4·2H2O. The XRD patterns show that the use of refluxing system in the sol-gel preparation can decrease the Li2Si2O5 and Li4SiO4 impurities in the Li2SiO3 sample. The calcination temperature plays an important role in the properties of the Li2SiO3 samples. The sample calcined at 700 °C has high purity of 97% Li2SiO3 and good morphology as precursor of Li2FeSiO4. It consists of primary particles with size of 1-3 μm, and the primary particle clusters form agglomerates with loose and porous appearance.展开更多

The effects of carbon sources and carbon content on the properties of the Li2FeSiO4/C composites were investigated. The crystalline structure, morphology, carbon content and charge/discharge performance of Li2FeSiO4/C composites were determined by X-ray diffraction(XRD), scanning electron microscopy(SEM), carbon/sulfur analyzer and electrochemical measurements. As carbon content increases in the range of 5%?20%, the amount of Fe3O4 impurity phase decreases. The SEM micrographs show that the addition of the carbon is favorable for reducing the Li2FeSiO4 grain size. Using sucrose as carbon source, the Li2FeSiO4/C composite with 14.5% carbon synthesized at 650 ℃ shows good electrochemical performance with an initial discharge capacity of 144.8 mA·h/g and a capacity retention ratio of 94.27% after 13 cycles.展开更多
