For the improvement of cyc le performance,the surface of LiCo0.05Mn1.95O4 was coated with ve ry fine SiO2-TiO2 composite prepared by sol-gel method. The structure and morphology of the coating materials were investigated by X-ray diffraction （XRD ） and scanning electron microscope （SEM）. The electrochemical performances of un coated and SiO2-TiO2 coated LiCo0.05Mn1.95O4 spinel at 25 ℃ and 55 ℃ were studied with a voltage range of 3.04.35V and a current density of 0.1 mA/cm2. There is a slight decrease in the initial discharge ca pacity of coated LiCo0.05Mn1.95O4（119 mA·h/g） compared with that of uncoated （123 mA·h/g）. However the cycle ability of LiCo0.05Mn1. 95O4 coated by SiO2-TiO2 is improved. It is proposed that surface treat ment is an effective method to improve the cycle performance of LiCo0.05Mn 1.95O4. The surface modification is successful in minimizing the harmful side reactions within the batteries by placing a protective barrier layer betwe en the oxidizing cathode material and the liquid electrolyte.展开更多

The structure and electrochemical performance were characterized by XRD, ESEM, particle size distribution analysis, specific surface area testing, galvanostatic cycling and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The XRD analysis shows that the sample exhibits pure spinel phase. The substitution of Co, La for Mn and Cl for O in the LiMn2O4 stabilizes the structural integrity of the spinel host, which in turn increases the electrochemical cycleability. The electrochemical experiments confirm that the capacity of the LiCo0.02La0.01Mn1.97O3.98Cl0.02 electrode maintains 90.6% of the initial capacity at 180th cycle.展开更多
