Effect of the Concentrations of the Reactants on Electrochemical Performance of Composite Cathode Material LiFePO4/C

Article Preview

Abstract:

FePO4·2H2O nanoplates are synthesized by a hydrothermal method, using Fe (III) compound as the iron source and are lithiated to LiFePO4/C by a simple rheological phase mathod. The structure, morphology and electrochemical properties of the FePO4·2H2O nanoplates and LiFePO4/C composites synthesized by changing the concentration of the reactants were characterized in detail by X-ray (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM), high-resolution transmission electron microscope and electrochemical measurement. The LiFePO4/C nanoparticles lithiated from the FePO4·2H2O nanoplates when there were about 10 mmol Fe3+ in 20 ml water solution demonstrates excellent cyclic performance.
