摘要
The influence of sintering temperature, carbon content and dispersive agent in bail-milling was investigated on the properties of LiFePO4/C prepared using Fe2O3, NH4H2PO4, Li2CO3 and glucose via solid state reaction. X-ray powder diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and charge-discharge test were applied to the characterization of the LiFePO4/C samples synthesized under different conditions. Sintering temperature affects the crystallite/ particle size and degree ofcrystallinity of LiFePO4, formation of Fe2P and maintenance of carbon in LiFePO4/C. Car- bon maintenance is favored by low sintering temperature, and 700 ℃ is optimum for synthesis of LiFePO4/C with superior electrochemical performance. A higher carbon content in the range of 4.48%-11.03% results in a better rate capability for LiFePO4/C. The dispersive agent used in ball-milling impacts the existent state of carbon in the final product which subsequently determines its charge-discharge behavior. The sample prepared at 700 ℃ by using acetone as the dispersive agent in ball-milling exhibits an excellent rate capability and capacity retention without any fade at 0.1 C, 1C and 2C, with corresponding average discharge capacities of 153.8, 128.3 and 121.0 mA·h·g-1. rest2ectivelv, in the first 50 cvcles.
