Effect of β-Cyclodextrin on Electrochemical Properties of LiMn2O4 Synthesized by Solid-State Combustion Synthesis

Article Preview

Abstract:

Spinel LiMn2O4 cathode material was rapidly prepared by solid-state combustion synthesis which used lithium carbonate and manganese carbonate as raw materials and β-cyclodextrin as a fuel. The effects of amount of β-cyclodextrin and calcination temperature on their structure and electrochemical properties were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), galvanostatic charge-discharge test and cyclic voltammetry (CV). The optimal synthesis conditions were found to be 5 wt% β-cyclodextrin. Under these conditions, high-purity spinel LiMn2O4 was obtained, and its discharge specific capacity was 110.5 mAh/g in the first cycle and still retained at 99.9 mAh/g after 40 cycles.
