The Li1.02Cr0.1Mn1.9O4 cathode material was treated by silanes coupling agent and then heated at 580 ℃ to remove organic material.

The results show that the surface layer of Li1.02Cr0.1Mn1.9O4 material is found to be rich in silicious compound. X-ray diffraction show that all the samples have perfect spinel structure. The electrochemical characterization of modified Li1.02Cr0.1Mn1.9O4 cathode material was tested. The cycle stability of charge/discharge at 55℃ is improved. The results of the charge/discharge curves show that the modified Li1.02Cr0.1Mn1.9O4 has better performance than those unmodified according to the inhibition of decline of reversible capacity of spinel Li1.02Cr0.1Mn1.9O4. Therefore, cycle performance is improved so obviously that 86.03% of the initial capacity is preserved after 100 cycles.展开更多
