Abstract: Spherical Ni0.7Co0.15Mn0.15(OH)2 precursor with a full concentration gradient (FCG) of Ni, Co and Mn elements was obtained via co-precipitation method. The precursor was evenly mixed with LiOH·H2O and then sintered at 750~900℃ for 12 h in oxygen to synthesize FCG-LiNi0.7Co0.15Mn0.15O2 cathode material with the Ni rich in core and Mn rich in the outer layer. The diffusion of Ni, Co, and Mn under different calcination temperatures led to various elements homogeneity, and was analyzed by energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDXS). Then, the electrochemical properties of samples were investigated by the charge-discharge test and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) test. The results indicate that the cathode material sintered at 800℃ has an obvious concentration-gradient distribution with a shell of LiNi0.52Co0.24Mn0.24O2 and exhibits the optimal electrochemical performance. Under the voltage range 2.8~4.3 V, it deliveres an initial discharge of 186.1 mAh·g-1 at a charge-discharge rate of 0.2C, and shows an excellent capacity retention of 90.1% after 200 cycles at a high rate of 2C. |
