Fe2O3-CaO-TiO2 体系下铁酸钙的合成过程及TiO2 和CaTiO3 的影响

为了确定高钛型钒钛磁铁矿烧结过程中铁酸钙的生成是受TiO₂还是TiO₂和CaO形成的CaTiO₃影响,首先利用Fe₂O₃和CaO的纯试剂合成了铁酸钙,并研究了TiO₂和CaTiO₃对钛铁酸钙 （FCT） 形成的影响。在Factsage 7.0软件进行热力学计算的基础上,通过在空气气氛下进行烧结,获得了在1023~1423 K温度范围内、不同烧结时间的不同样品。通过X射线衍射和扫描电镜-能谱分析等表征手段,对烧结样品的物相转变和微观结构变化进行了表征。发现FCT的形成过程主要分为2个阶段：前一阶段为1023~1223 K温度范围内Fe₂O₃与CaO之间的反应,合成产物为Ca₂Fe₂O₅,反应方程式为“Fe₂O₃(s)+ 2CaO(s)= Ca₂Fe₂O₅(s)”;后一阶段为1223~1423 K温度范围内Ca₂Fe₂O₅和Fe₂O₃的反应,主要产物为CaFe₂O₄,反应为“Ca₂Fe₂O₅(s)+ Fe₂O₃(s)= 2CaFe₂O₄(s)”,该阶段尤其是温度为1423 K时,反应速率显著加快,随温度的升高CaTiO₃显著增加。然而,Ti元素在铁酸钙中的固溶很难实现,TiO₂与铁酸钙之间的反应不是形成FCT的有效途径。随着保温时间的延长,CaTiO₃和FCT相界中Fe元素含量增加。FCT主要是通过Fe组分在CaTiO₃中固溶形成的,主要反应是“Fe₂O₃+CaTiO₃(s)=FCT(s)”。

Effects of precipitator on the morphological, structural and electrochemical characteristics of Li[Ni1/3Co1/3Mn1/3]O2 prepared via carbonate coprecipitation

Three precipitators, i.e. Na₂CO₃, (NH₄)₂CO₃ and NH₄HCO₃, are employed to prepare Li[Ni_1/3Co_1/3Mn_1/3]O₂ via the carbonate coprecipitation method. The effects of precipitator on the morphological, structural and electrochemical characteristics of the prepared samples are studied. The sample prepared by using Na₂CO₃ as precipitator has irregular particle shape and nonuniform particle size, while the sample prepared by using (NH₄)₂CO₃ as precipitator has spherical particle shape and uniform particle size. Among all the samples, the one prepared with (NH₄)₂CO₃ exhibits the best hexagonal layered structure, which results in its highest discharge capacity and best cycling performance. Therefore, precipitator plays an important role in the coprecipitation reaction and makes a great impact on the characteristics of Li[Ni_1/3Co_1/3Mn_1/3]O₂.     

纳米级和微米级稀土氧化物掺杂W-La2O3-Y2O3-ZrO2 阴极尖端的组织和性能

Surface modification of spherical LiNi1/3Co 1/3 Mn1/3O2 with Al2O3 using heterogeneous nucleation process

To improve the cycle stability at high voltage and high charge/discharge rate, spherical LiNi1/3Co1/3Mn1/3O2 was coated with Al2O3 by using heterogeneous nucleation process, and the physical and electrochemical properties were studied. The SEM images show that there is a uniform coating on the modified spherical LiNi1/3Co1/3Mn1/3O2. The electrochemical tests indicate that the properties of LiNi1/3Co1/3Mn1/3O2 coated with 0.5% aluminum oxide are the best. The initial capacities are 150 and 173 mA.h/g at the rate of I C in the voltage range of 2.7-4.3 V and 2.7-4.6 V, respectively, and the discharge capacities maintain about 99% and 85% after 30 cycles, respectively. While those of the bare LiNi1/3Co1/3Mn1/3O2 are only 90% and 75%, respectively. The CV tests of LiNi1/3Co1/3Mn1/3O2 show that Al203-coating can restrain the oxide-reduction peak currents fading during the charge/discharge course.     

Synthesis and electrochemical performance of Li(Ni0.8Co0.15Al0.05)0.8(Ni0.5Mn0.5)0.2O2 with core-shell structure as cathode material for Li-ion batteries

The core-shell structure cathode material Li(Ni_0.8Co_0.15Al_0.05)_0.8(Ni_0.5Mn_0.5)_0.2O₂ (LNCANMO) was synthesized via a co-precipitation method. Its applicability as a cathode material for lithium ion batteries was investigated. The core-shell particle consists of LiNi_0.8Co_0.15Al_0.05O₂ (LNCAO) as the core and a LiNi_0.5Mn_0.5O₂ as the shell. The thickness of the LiNi_0.5Mn_0.5O₂ layer is approximately 1.25 μm, as estimated by field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM). The cycling behavior between 2.8 and 4.3 V at a current rate of 18 mA g⁻¹ shows a reversible capacity of about 195 mAh g⁻¹ with little capacity loss after 50 cycles. High-rate capability testing shows that even at a rate of 5 C, a stable capacity of approximately 127 mAh g⁻¹ is retained. In contrast, the capacity of LNCAO rapidly decreases in cyclic and high rate tests. The observed higher current rate capability and cycle stability of LNCANMO can be attributed to the lower impedance including charge transfer resistance and surface film resistance. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) indicates that LNCANMO had a much improved oxygen evolution onset temperature of approximately 251 °C, and a much lower level of exothermic-heat release compared to LNCAO. The improved thermal stability of the LNCANMO can be ascribed to the thermally stable outer shell of LiNi_0.5Mn_0.5O₂, which suppresses oxygen release from the host lattice and not directly come into contact with the electrolyte solution. In particular, LNCANMO is shown to exhibit improved electrochemical performance and is a safe material for use as an electrode for lithium ion batteries.
