The two samples have a different morphology and particle size, while the structure of LiFePO4 is unaffected. The LiFePO4/C composite prepared from the precursor dried by blast drying has a much lower surface resistance and a much better rate capability because the deposited carbon is more graphite-like and more conductive. The cycling performance is also much better for the LiFePO4/C composite prepared from the precursor dried by blast drying because only a slight impedance growth is involved upon cycling. These results suggest that the precursor drying process has a significant impact on the properties of LiFePO4/C composite, and its effect is highly dependent on the carbon content.展开更多
