An Approach towards Synthesis of Nanoarchitectured LiNi1/3Co1/3Mn1/3O2 Cathode Material for Lithium Ion Batteries

To explore advanced cathode materials for lithium ion batteries (LIBs), a nanoarchitectured LiNi1/3Co1/3Mn1/3O2 (LNCM) material is developed using a modified carbonate coprecipitation method in combination with a vacuum distillation-crystallisation process. Compared with the LNCM materials produced by a traditional carbonate coprecipitation method, the prepared LNCM material synthesized through this modified method reveals a better hexagonal layered structure, smaller particle sizes (ca. 110.5 nm), and higher specific surface areas. Because of its unique structural characteristics, the as-prepared LNCM material demonstrates excellent electrochemical properties including high rate capability and good cycleability when it is utilized as a cathode in the lithium ion battery (LIB).
