Abstract:

The rapid degradation of battery capacity caused by the dissolving of iron and manganese metals during high-temperature cycling has been a challenge limiting the large-scale application of lithium manganese iron phosphate materials(LMFP) for long time.Different carbon sources were used to encapsulate and modify LMFP materials,in order to improve their ionic and electronic conductivity,and improve the problem of iron and manganese metal dissolution during high-temperature cycling.The results showed that when polyethylene pyrrolidone(PVP) was used as the carbon source,the average carbon layer thickness of the LMFP/C-1 sample was only 1.86 nm,and the uniformity was the best,with the highest degree of graphitization.The electrochemical characterization results of the coin-type half cell showed that the LMFP/C-1 sample coated with PVP as the carbon source had the highest discharge specific capacity at 0.1C rate,reaching 152.17 mA·h/g,and had the best rate and cycling performance.The electrochemical characterization results of the coin type full cell showed that the LMFP/C-1 sample had the highest discharge specific capacity at 0.1C rate under room temperature,which was 131.19 mA·h/g,and the discharge specific capacity after 100 cycles at 1.0C rate was still the highest among the three samples.However,under high temperature conditions,the LMFP/C-2 sample coated with glucose as the carbon source showed the highest discharge specific capacity after 100 cycles at 1C rate,and the total amount of Fe and Mn metals dissolution detected at the negative electrode after high temperature cycling was only 32.94 mg/L,indicating that glucose as the carbon source could effectively prevent metal dissolving during high temperature cycling and improve the high temperature cycling performance of LMFP.
