Pathway for high-energy density LiMnFePO4 cathodes

Polyanion cathodes are credited for its thermal stability and better safety, no matter in lithium ion batteries or sodium ion batteries. Polyanion oxides with phosphate groups came to the public's attention in 1997, and the representative material is LiFePO₄, which has been widely applied and plays a huge role in the field of powder batteries and energy storage system. However, owing to the low lithiation potentials and storage sites, the energy densities of polyanion cathodes have been restricted, resulting of low-endurance and limited application scenarios. Accordingly, here, we use cheap and environmental friendly raw materials as precursors to synthesis high energy density LiMn_0.6Fe_0.4PO₄@C cathode by a simple spray-drying and high temperature calcination process. The self-designed liquid polyacrylonitrile (LPAN) is added for the intention of nanoparticle coating, conductive network construction and particle granulation. The low-cost and carbon-coated LiMn_0.6Fe_0.4PO₄ cathode exhibits excellent reversible capacity, low electrochemical polarization and excellent rate capacity, which maintains 93.5% capacity retention after cycling 1000 times at 5C. The work introduces a new avenue to fabricate olivine structure cathodes with outstanding electrochemical performance for the high energy density lithium ion batteries.
