doi:10.7503/cjcu20170215

Abstract

Abstract:

Carbon coated LiNi_1/3Co_1/3Mn_1/3O₂(NCM@C) was prepared by active carbon to adsorb the mixed solution of acetate salts of Co²⁺, Mn²⁺, Ni²⁺ and Li⁺. Transmission electron microscopy(TEM) image shows that the surfaces of LiNi_1/3Co_1/3Mn_1/3O₂ particles are homogeneously coated by carbon with a thickness about 10 nm. The initial discharge capacity of NCM@C is 181 mA·h/g at 0.2C, and its initial Columbic efficiency is 90.7%. Meanwhile, the discharge capacity of NCM@C is 78 mA·h/g at 20C, while it is only 39 mA·h/g for LiNi_1/3Co_1/3Mn_1/3O₂(NCM) that prepared by a co-precipitation method. NCM@C also shows good cycling stability, the capacity retention is 88.1% after 50 cycles at 0.2C, while it is only 66.4% for NCM.
