Effects of Different Carbon Sources on Performance of LiFePO4/C Composite Material

Article Preview

Abstract:

Two kinds of carbon sources and their mixtures with different proportions were employed to prepare the LiFePO4/C composite material by high temperature solid state method. Precursor materials with different carbon sources were prepared by planetary ball-milling without dispersant. Results showed that the various precursors had different effect on the uniformity of the mixing and the crystallinity of the LiFePO4/C positive material. The mixed carbon sources had better effects on the performance of positive material. When the ratio of sucrose and citric acid was 1:3 (75% citric acid), the discharge capacity of LiFePO4/C composite material was 144.1 mAh/g at the discharge rate of 0.2C. Its high-rate performance was also better.
