Synthesis and Performance of Cathode Material LiNi1/3Co1/3Mn1/3O2 for Lithium-ion Batteries
The cathode material LiNi1/3CO1/3 Mn1/3O2 for lithium ion battery is prepared by the hydroxide co-precipitation method. X-ray diffraction(XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and electrochemical tests are used to characterize the structure, appearance and electrochemical performance of LiNi1/3Co1/3Mn1/3O2. It is found that the sample synthesized at 800℃ for 12h has homogenous distribution of particles. The electrochemical test shows that the initial discharge capacity of LiNi1/3Co1/3Mn1/3O2 powder is 150mAh·g-1 at the rate of 0.2C, and the capadity retains 137mAh·g-1 after 30 cycles.
