摘要
Layered Li[Ni1/3Co1/3Mn1/3]O2 was synthesized with complex metal hydroxide precursors that were prepared by a co-precipitation method.The influence of coordination between ammonia and transition-metal cations on the structural and electrochemical properties of the Li[Ni1/3Co1/3Mn1/3]O2 materials was studied.It is found that when the molar ratio of ammonia to total transition-metal cations is 2.7:1,uniform particle size distribution of the complex metal hydroxide is observed via scanning electron microscopy.The average particle size of Li[Ni1/3Co1/3Mn1/3]O2 materials was measured to be about 500 nm,and the tap-density was measured to be approximately 2.37 g/cm3,which is comparable with that of commercialized LiCoO2.XRD analysis indicates that the presently synthesized Li[Ni1/3Co1/3Mn1/3]O2 has a hexagonal layered-structure.The initial discharge capacity of the Li[Ni1/3Co1/3Mn1/3]O2 positive-electrode material is determined to be 181.5 mA·h/g using a Li/Li[Ni1/3Co1/3Mn1/3]O2 cell operated at 0.1C in the voltage range of 2.8-4.5 V.The discharge capacity at the 50th cycle at 0.5C is 170.6 mA·h/g.
