Li-ion batteries; Mossbauer spectroscopy; cathode material
Abstract :
[en] Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) have been widely applied as a power source for portable and stationary energy storage systems. In this work, we report the electrochemical performance of FPHH/CB and FPHH/CNT cathode materials for Li-ion batteries where FPHH represents Fe1.19(PO4)(OH)0.57(H2O)0.43 while carbon black (CB) and carbon nanotubes (CNT) were used as precursors in the one-pot hydrothermal synthesis. We show that the addition of conducting carbon black into the solution has a strong influence on reducing the particle size and tailoring their morphology. Thanks to its favorable microstructural characteristics, the FPHH-10 wt% C and FPHH-20 wt% C materials exhibited good performance [1]. The CNT also improve the performance of FPHH such as capacity retention. The study of the reaction mechanism of FPHH/CNT during cycling by combining operando XRD and 57Fe Mössbauer spectroscopy (Figure 1) shows that the insertion mechanism is a monophasic reaction with 10% volume variations associated to the Fe3+/Fe2+ redox reaction [2].
