Abstract: | The electrochemical performance of LiMn2O4 is improved by the surface coating of nano-Li3PO4 via ball milling and high-temperature heating. The Li3PO4-coated LiMn2O4 powders are characterized by X-ray diffraction and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM). At 55 °C, capacity retention of 85% after 100 cycles was obtained for Li/Li3PO4-coated LiMn2O4 electrode at 1C rate, while that of pristine sample was only 65.6%. The Li/Li3PO4-coated LiMn2O4 electrode also showed improved rate capability especially at high C rates. At 5C-rates, the delivered capacities of pristine and Li3PO4-coated LiMn2O4 electrodes were 80.7 mAh/g and 112.4 mAh/g, respectively. The electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) indicates that the charge transfer resistance for Li/Li3PO4-coated LiMn2O4 cell was reduced compared to Li/LiMn2O4 cell. |
