High capacity Li[Li{sub 0.2}Ni{sub 0.2}Mn{sub 0.6}]O{sub 2} cathode materials via a carbonate co-precipitation method.

Journal Article · · J. Power Sources
Spherical Li[Li{sub 0.2}Ni{sub 0.2}Mn{sub 0.6}]O{sub 2} has been synthesized by a carbonate co-precipitation method. The Li[Li{sub 0.2}Ni{sub 0.2}Mn{sub 0.6}]O{sub 2} with a phase-pure and well-ordered layered structure was synthesized by heat-treatment of a spherical (Ni{sub 0.25}Mn{sub 0.75}){sub 3}O{sub 4} precursor with LiOH {center_dot} H{sub 2}O. The average particle size of the Li[Li{sub 0.2}Ni{sub 0.2}Mn{sub 0.6}]O{sub 2} powders was approximately 20 {micro}m and the size distribution was quite narrow due to the homogeneity of the (Ni{sub 0.25}Mn{sub 0.75})CO{sub 3}. The Li[Li{sub 0.2}Ni{sub 0.2}Mn{sub 0.6}]O{sub 2} electrode calcined at 900 C delivered an initial discharge capacity of approximately 270 mAh g{sup -1} in the voltage range of 2.0-4.6 V. The differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) results for the Li[Li{sub 0.2}Ni{sub 0.2}Mn{sub 0.6}]O{sub 2} prepared at 900 C showed a major exothermic reaction at 270 C.
