Abstract:

One-time spray-drying method was used to prepare spherical LiMnPO4/C cathode materials with lithium hydroxide,manganese acetate,NH4H2PO4 and polyethylene glycol as raw materials.The effect of calcination temperature on the morpho-logy,structure and electrochemical performance of spherical LiMnPO4/C samples was studied.Its structure and morphology were characterized by X-ray diffraction(XRD)and field emission scanning electron microscopy(SEM).The morphology and prechemical properties of LiMnPO4/C obtained after calcination at different temperatures are quite different.The results showed that the spherical LiMnPO4/C calcined at 700 ℃ had olivine-type crystal structure,and it showed a spherical shape composed of one-dimensional nano particles with a diameter of about 50 nm under SEM.The specific discharge capacity of this sample reached 148 mA·h/g for the first time at a rate of 0.1C at room temperature.After 80 cycles,the specific discharge capacity was still around 140 mA·h/g,and the capacity retention rate was 94.6%.
