The crystalline structures, morphologies and specific surface areas of the materials were investigated by X-ray diffractometry(XRD), scanning electron microscopy(SEM) and multi-point brunauer emmett and teller(BET) method. The results show that the LiFePO4/C composite with the best network structure is obtained by adding 10% phenolic resin carbon. Its electronic conductivity increases to 2.86×10-2 S/cm. It possesses the highest specific surface area of 115.65 m2/g, which exhibits the highest discharge specific capacity of 164.33 mA·h/g at C/10 rate and 149.12 mA·h/g at 1 C rate. The discharge capacity is completely recovered when C/10 rate is applied again.展开更多

The precursors of LiFePO4, LiFePO4/C composite and the resultant products were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM), and the electrochemical performances were investigated by galvanostatic charge and discharge tests. The precursors composed of amorphous Fe3(PO4)2·xH2O and crystalline Li3PO4 obtained in the co-precipitation processing have a sphere-like morphology. The spherical LiFePO4 derived from the calcinations of the precursor at 700 ℃ for 10 h in a reduction atmosphere shows a discharge capacity of 119 mAh·g-1 at the C/10 rate, while the LiFePO4/C composite with 10wt.% carbon addition exhibits a discharge capacity of 140 mAh·g-1. The electrochemical performances indicate that the LiFePO4/C composite has a higher specific capacity and a more stable cycling performance than the bare olivine LiFePO4 due to the carbon addition enhancing the electronic conductivity.展开更多
