Area of Science:

  • Materials Science
  • Electrochemistry
  • Sustainable Energy

Background:

  • Growing demand for high-energy-density storage devices necessitates sustainable solutions for end-of-life lithium cobalt oxide (LCO).
  • Upcycling spent LCO into advanced cathode materials offers a pathway to reduce waste and improve battery performance.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop an integrated bulk and surface modification strategy for upcycling spent LCO (S-LCO) into high-voltage cathode materials.
  • To enhance the electrochemical performance of S-LCO for next-generation energy storage applications.

Main Methods:

  • Implemented a dual strategy involving bulk manganese (Mn) doping and near-surface phosphorus (P) gradient doping.
  • Applied a hybrid coating of Li3PO4 (LPO) and CoP (CP) onto the S-LCO surface, creating MP-LCO@LPO/CP.
  • Investigated the structural stability and electrochemical properties of the modified cathode material.

Main Results:

  • The optimized MP-LCO@LPO/CP cathode demonstrated superior high-voltage performance.
  • Achieved an initial discharge capacity of 218.8 mAh g⁻¹ at 0.2 C.
  • Exhibited excellent capacity retention: 80.9% (at 0.5 C) after 200 cycles at 4.6 V and 96.3% (over 100 cycles) at 4.5 V.

Conclusions:

  • The proposed bulk and surface modification strategy effectively upcycles S-LCO into high-performance cathode materials.
  • The hybrid LPO/CP coating and Mn/P co-doping enhance Li+ conductivity, electron transport, and structural stability.
  • This approach provides a viable route for the sustainable valorization of commercial S-LCO into advanced energy storage materials.
