Özet (Çeviri)
Among various energy storage technologies, rechargeable lithium-ion batteries have been considered as effective solution to the increasing need for high-energy density electrochemical power sources. Rechargeable lithium-ion batteries offer energy densities 2 - 3 times and power densities 5 - 6 times higher than conventional Ni-Cd and Ni-MH batteries, and as a result, they weigh less and take less space for a given energy delivery. However, the use of lithium-ion batteries in many large applications such as electric vehicles and storage devices for future power grids is hindered by the poor thermal stability, relatively high toxicity, and high cost of lithium cobalt oxide (LiCoO2) powders, which are currently used as the cathode material in commercial lithium-ion batteries. Recently, lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4) powders have become a favorable cathode material for lithium-ion batteries because of their low cost, high discharge potential (around 3.4 V versus Li/Li+), large specific capacity (170 mAh g-1), good thermal stability, and high abundance with the environmentally benign and safe nature. As a result, there is a huge demand for the production of high-performance LiFePO4. However, LiFePO4 also has its own limitation such as low conductivity (~10-9 S cm-1), which results in poor rate capability. To address this problem, various approaches can be used such as decreasing particle size of LiFePO4, doping LiFePO4 with metal ions or coating LiFePO4 surface with carboneous materials. Formation of conductive layer on LiFePO4 and decreasing particle size are promising approaches due to their superior contribution to electrical conductivity and electrochemical performance of LiFePO4. Although different approaches can be used for surface coating and particle size decrement, electrospinning can be potentially considered as an efficient, simple and inexpensive way. In this study, LiFePO4/carbon and carbon nanotube- and graphene-loaded electrospun LiFePO4/carbon composite nanofibers were synthesized by using a combination of sol-gel and electrospinning. During the material preparation, polyacrylonitrile (PAN) was used as an electrospinning media and a carbon source. LiFePO4 precursor materials and/or conductive materials (carbon nanotubes and graphene) and PAN were dissolved in N,N-dimethylformamide separately and they were mixed before electrospinning. LiFePO4 precursor/PAN fibers were heat treated, during which LiFePO4 precursor transformed to energy-storage LiFePO4 material and PAN was converted to carbon. The surface morphology, microstructure and electrochemical performance of the materials were analyzed. Compared with conventional powder based positive electrodes, the novel LiFePO4/C composite nanofiber cathodes possess better electrochemical performance. Furthermore, the newly developed LiFePO4/C composite nanofibers are easy to fabricate, highly controllable, and can be used in practical Lithium-ion battery applications. In addition to LiFePO4, more recent efforts have been directed to mixed form of layered lithiummetal oxides (Li-Ni-Mn-Co). Nickel and manganese are of importance because of their lower cost, safety and higher abundance in nature. These new cathodes offer noticeable improvement in the capacity and cycling behavior. In these cathodes, LiNi1/3Co1/3Mn1/3O2 attracted significant interest because of its good electrochemical properties such as high capacity, prolonged cycling life, and so on. On the other hand, it has some disadvantages such as instability at high voltages and high current densities. To overcome these problems, synthesis of layered Li-rich composite materials such as xLi2MnO3·(1-x)LiCo1/3Ni1/3Mn1/3O2 can be a promising approach. In this study, various xLi2MnO3·(1-x)LiCo1/3Ni1/3Mn1/3O2 (x=0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5) composite cathode materials were prepared by a one-step sol-gel route. Morphology, microstructure and electrochemical behavior of these cathode materials were evaluated. The resultant cathode material shows good electrochemical performance. Relatively low cost and simple preparation route make new xLi2MnO3·(1-x)LiMn1/3Ni1/3Co1/3O2 composite materials possible to use as potential cathode candidate for lithium-ion batteries.
