Abstract: In this paper, we report a new kind of moist chemical method for preparing LiNiVO4which can be used to prepare lithium ion battery for the cathode active materials with a very high battery voltage(48 Vvs. Li). Li2CO3, NiCO3and NH4VO3were used as row materials, and H2C2O4saturated solution was used both as a precipitate agent and as a complex agent. The precursor gel composed of (NH4)2(VO)2(C2O4)4·6H2O, NiC2O4·2H2Oand Li 2C2O4can be obtained, and after sintering the dry gel we got the products. The results of XRDshow that the product sintered at 400 ℃ for 2 h exists in a cubic crystal, single phase, inverse LiNiVO4and the average sizes (by Scherrer formula ) were 40-50 nm(400 ℃, 2 h ) and 65-70 nm(700 ℃, 2 h) , respectively, a=0.8223(1) nm. The TGand DTAcurves implied that the dry gel underwent water loss, decompositions of oxalates and complex oxalate, the solid state reactions finished at 377 ℃. The results of XPSproved that the valence in LiNiVO4would be Li+,V5+, Ni2+(in the main), respectively. From ICPanalysis we also knew that the sample corresponded basically to stoichiometry LiNiVO4.
