X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscope measurements showed that the spinel structure LiNio.sMnl.504 with the space group Fd3m was formed during urea combustion.

For the LiNi0.5Mn1.5O4 sample prepared with a urea/Li molar ratio of 0.57 and a heat treatment temperature of 900℃, the particle-size distribution fell in a narrow range of 1-2 Dm.
