The effects of particle size on the electrochemical performance of LiAl0.05Mnl.9504 samples were investigated by differential thermal analysis and thermogravimetry, X-ray diffraction, galvanostatic charge-discharge test, cyclic voltammetry, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The results indicate that all samples with different particle sizes show the same pure spinel phase and good crystal structure; LiAlo.osMnl.9504 with Dso = 17.3 μm shows better capacity retention; LiAlo.osMnl.gsO4 cathode materials with small particle size have a bigger resistance of charge transfer than the large one, and the particle size has significant effects on the electrochemical performance of Al-doped spinel LiMn2O4 cathode materials.展开更多

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
