采用溶胶_凝胶法合成尖晶石LiMn2 O4 ,并以LiCoO2 对其进行包覆 ,用XRD、SEM、EPMA等方法对修饰的尖晶石结构和性能进行研究 .结果表明 ,经包覆的LiMn2 O4 在 70 0℃焙烧 10h所得的晶粒是表层富含Co的立方尖晶石 ,而且晶粒中Co3+的含量呈现出从表到里递减的梯度分布 .以该材料作锂离子电池正极 ,虽初始容量稍有降低 ,但能有效地降低Mn2 +在电解质中的溶解 ,而且对Jahn_Teller效应有一定的抑制作用 ,包覆的LiMn2 O4 尖晶石正极材料比未包覆的有更好的循环性能
The surface of spinel LiMn 2O 4 was modified by the sol_gel process with LiCoO 2_coated LiMn 2O 4 and studied by XRD,SEM and EPMA.The results have shown that the surface of the coated grains heated at 700 ℃ for 10h,which is cubic spinel,were Co_rich.The amount of Co 3+ in the grains changed owing to different place of the grain and decreased from surface to inner parts. Using the coated as the cathode of Li_ion cells,the initial capacity deceased slightly,but the amount of Mn 2+ solving in electrolyte decreased,Jahn_Teller effect was suppressed to a certain extent.The LiCoO 2_coated LiMn 2O 4 showed better cycling performance than the bare spinel LiMn 2O 4.
