The physical and electrochemical behaviors of Li[Ni1/3Mn1/3Co1/3]O2 were characterized by X-ray diffraction （XRD）, scanning electron microscopy （SEM）, field emission scanning electron microscopy （FESEM） and electrochemical charge/discharge cycling tests. The results show that the difference in pretreatment process results in the difference in compound Li[Ni1/3Co1/3Mn1/3]O2 structure, morphology and the electrochemical characteristics. The Li[Ni1/3Mn1/3Co1/3]O2 prepared by solution phase route maintains the uniform spherical morphology of the [Ni1/3Co1/3Mn1/3]3O4, and it exhibits a higher capacity retention and better rate capability than that prepared by ball mill method. The initial discharge capacity of this sample reaches 178 mA-h/g and the capacity retention after 50 cycles is 98.7% at a current density of 20 mA/g. Moreover, it delivers high discharge capacity of 135 mA-h/g at a current density of 1 000 mA/g.展开更多

Inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy（ICP-AES）, Fourier transformed infrared（FTIR） spectrum, X-ray diffraction（XRD）, scanning electron microscopy（SEM）, charge-discharge test and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy（EIS） were used to evaluate the elemental contents, structures, morphologies and electrochemical properties of samples. The results show that ethanol washing can remove effectively the synthetic residues LiOH/Li2 O on the freshly-prepared LiNi0.8Co0.15Al0.05O2 and make the sample much more resistant to H2O and CO2, without destroying its bulk structure, surface morphology and electrochemical performances. Moreover, the discharge specific capacity and cycle performance of LiNi0.8Co0.15Al0.05O2 after storage in air with a relative humidity of 80% for three months are improved by immediate ethanol washing.展开更多
