The highly crystalline ZnMn2O4 nanowires about 15 nm in width and 500 nm in length showed a high specific capacity of about 650 mAh.g-1 at a current rate of 100 mA.g-1 after 40 cycles. They also exhibited high power capability at elevated current rates, i.e., 450 and 350 mAh.g 1 at current rates of 500 and 1000 mA.g 1, respectively. Formation of Mn3O4 and ZnO phases was identified by ex situ X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) studies after the initial discharge-charge cycle, which indicates that the ZnMn2O4 phase was converted to a nanocomposite of Mn3O4 and ZnO phases immediately after the electrochemical conversion reaction.展开更多
文摘采用溶胶凝胶法合成出锂离子电池用Zn Mn2O4负极材料,并用XRD,SEM和电化学性能测试对材料进行了表征。实验结果表明,随着焙烧温度与时间升高,晶体结晶更好。在焙烧温度达到800℃,焙烧时间为12 h时,能够形成单一四方相尖晶石结构的Zn Mn2O4粉体,结晶良好,当焙烧温度和时间继续升高,颗粒会出现较大的团聚体;将所制备的Zn Mn2O4粉体组装成扣式电池进行电化学测试的结果表明,800℃焙烧12 h的样品具有较好的电化学性能。首次充放电比容量分别为1096 m Ah·g-1和1310 m Ah·g-1,库伦效率为83.66%。有望成为锂离子电池石墨负极替代材料。
