Abstract Electrochemical performance of the 18650 lithium-ion batteries consisting lithium-rich layered oxides 0.5Li 2 MnO 3 ·0.5LiMn 0.33 Ni 0.33 Co 0.33 O 2 cathode material and soft carbon anode is investigated in detail. The cathode is synthesized by a spray drying process and the properties are studied by various methods, while the soft carbon is commercial available. The assembled batteries can exhibit excellent cyclic performance with a capacity retention of 90.2% even after 600 cycles in the voltage ranges of 2.0-4.5 V (at 1C-rate). Moreover, they can also deliver excellent rate capabilities as the discharge capacity under 40C is nearly equal to 83.9% of that under 1C (voltage range is in 2.0-4.5 V). Furthermore, in order to evaluate the mechanism of the superior performance exhibited by the full cells, cells after 300 cycles are disassembled in a glove box to assess the changes on the active materials by using a series of technique methods, including a scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), energy dispersive spectrometry (EDS), High-resolution transmission electron microscope (TEM) and selected area electron diffraction (SAED).
