Lithium-ion batteries based on intercalation compounds have great potential for applications in microelectronics and telecommunications. In this study, several synthetic approaches have been investigated to prepare LiMn{sub 2}O{sub 4} powders with desired properties for advanced batteries. Results indicate that Li{sub x}Mn{sub 2}O{sub 4} powders can be readily prepared by the Pechini process at moderate temperatures. A glycine nitrate process (GNP) has also been successfully used to produce fine Li{sub x}Mn{sub 2}O{sub 4} powders with average particle size of 0.3-0.5 {mu}m.
