1State Key Laboratory of Chemical Engineering, Department of Chemical, China.
Abstract:
In this work, a modified Ni-rich cathode material LiNi0.8Co0.1Mn0.1O2 with a unique nano cubic microstructure is successfully synthesized via a rapid precipitation assisted with hydrothermal treatment. The formation of this distinctive microstructure is attributed to the homogeneous rapid precipitation in microreactor, which predominantly generates uniform crystal nuclei. The as-prepared material with nano-/microstructure shows superior initial reversible capacity (205.3 mAh·g-1 at 2.7-4.3 V) and rate capability (163.9 mAh·g-1 at 5 C). Additionally, it maintains a high capacity (188.2 mAh·g-1) with a retention of 87.2 % at 1 C after 200 cycles, demonstrating outstanding cycling stability. Our work presents a straightforward and efficient approach for producing nano-cubic microstructure layered cathode materials.
