Improvement of electrochemical and thermal properties of Li[Ni0.8Co0.1Mn0.1]O-2 positive electrode materials by multiple metal (Al, Mg) substitution

초록

Al and/or Mg-substituted Li[Ni0.8Co0.1Mn0.1-x-yAlxMgy]O-2 were prepared by a co-precipitation method and characterized by X-ray diffraction with Rietveld refinement, thermogravimetric analysis, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and electrochemical measurements. The Rietveld refinement results show that cation mixing of Al and/or Mg-substituted Li[Ni0.8Co0.1Mn0.1-x-yAlxMgy]O-2 was reduced with increased doping amounts of Al and Mg. The Al and/or Mg substitution in Li[Ni0.8Co0.1Mn0.1]O-2 also resulted in improved electrochemical cycling behavior, structural stability, and thermal stability compared to pristine Li[Ni0.8Co0.1Mn0.1]O-2. The improvements of electrochemical and thermal properties resulted from the stabilized host Structure by Al and/or Mg incorporation into Li[Ni0.8Co0.1Mn0.1]O-2.
