Abstract:The spherical precursor of metal carbonate, Co0.9Ni0.05Mn0.05CO3, was prepared by co-precipitation method using NH4HCO3 as precipitating agent. LiCo0.9Ni0.05Mn0.05O2 was prepared by solid-state reaction method in air using Co0.9Ni0.05Mn0.05CO3 and Li2CO3 as starting materials. The effects of sintering temperature on the structure and electrochemical properties of the product were studied. The morphology and structure of LiCo0.9Ni0.05Mn0.05O2 were characterized by SEM and XRD, respectively. The valence state of transition metal was determined by XPS. The results show that sintering temperature has a critical role in the performance of the product and the suitable sintering temperature is 900 ℃. LiCo0.9Ni0.05Mn0.05O2 exhibits good cycle performance and high rate capability within the voltage range of 3.0-4.5 V. At 25 ℃, the initial discharge capacity are 181.6, 178.3, 173.9, 167.8 and 157.1 mA?h/g at 0.2C, 0.5C, 1C, 5C and 10C, respectively.
