Abstract

Lithium-rich layered materials with high discharge capacity are regarded as one of the most promising cathodes for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). However, they have been suffering from rapid voltage fading and poor rate performance, which impede their practical application.

Herein, LiMnNiO with layered structure was successfully prepared by the ultrasonic dispersion-assisted chemical reduction. X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), scanning electron microscope (SEM), transmission electron microscope (TEM) and electrochemical measurements were used to characterize its microstructure and electrochemical properties.

The secondary particles of an as-prepared micro/nanostructured sample consist of irregular and sheet-like rectangular blocks. Electrochemical results show that the initial charge and discharge capacity within 2.0~4.8 V is 337.5 mA h g-1 and 236.9 mA h g-1 at 0.2C (1C = 200 mA g-1). The subsequent discharge capacity is stabilized at about 210 mA h g-1 for more than 100 cycles. When the current density is increased to 2C, the cycling columbic efficiency is maintained at 99.3% after 100 cycles.

Thus, the LiMnNiO cathode material prepared by ultrasonic dispersion-assisted chemical reduction has a promising application in LIBs with high energy density and long cycle life.
