Enhanced Electrochemical Performance of LiNi0.8Co0.1Mn0.1O2 Cathode for Lithium-Ion Batteries by Precursor Preoxidation
2018
Nickel-rich layered oxide LiNi0.8Co0.1Mn0.1O2 suffers from severe structural instability, causing inferior electrochemical performance. For a solution to this problem, a Na2S2O8 preoxidation method is employed to modify the surface structure of precursor Ni0.8Co0.1Mn0.1(OH)2. Transmission electron microscopy images show that the lattice orientations of the precursor are well-ordered, and the resulted product LiNi0.8Co0.1Mn0.1O2 with this precursor exhibits a well-defined layered structure without a cation-mixing layer on the surface. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and Rietveld refinement results indicate that the contents of Ni2+, Co2+, and Li+/Ni2+ disordering ratio are significantly reduced at the same time. ICP-AES and titration results suggest that the average oxidation state of Ni is enhanced after Na2S2O8 preoxidation. A further electrochemical kinetic analysis using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and a potentiostatic intermittent titration technique reveals that the LiNi0.8Co0.1Mn0.1O2 sa...
