Abstract:

To improve the cycle performance of spinel LiMn₂O₄ as the cathode of 4 V class lithium ion batteries, spinel were successfully prepared using the sol-gel method. The dependence of the physicochemical properties of the spinel LiCr_xMn₂_-xO₄ (x=0,0.05,0.1,0.2,0.3,0.4) powders powder has been extensively investigated by using X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM), charge-discharge test and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The results show that as Mn is replaced by Cr, the initial capacity decreases, but the cycling performance improves due to stabilization of spinel structure. Of all, the LiCr_0.2Mn_1.8O₄ has best electrochemical performance, 107.6 mAhg^-1 discharge capacity, 96.1% of the retention after 50 cycles.
