The obtained LiNi0.9Co0.15Al0.05O2 materialhas well-defined layered structure and uniform element distribution, which reveals an enhanced electro-chemical performance with a capacity retention of 97.9% after 100 cycles at 0.2 C, and reduced thermalrunaway from the isothermal calorimetry test. In situ X-ray diffraction （XRD） was employed to capturethe structural changes during the charge-discharge process. The reversible evolutions of lattice parame-ters （a, b, c, and V） further verify the structural stability.展开更多

The TiP_2O_7-coated LiNi_(0.8)Co_(0.15)Al_(0.05)O_2 is characterized by Xray diffraction analysis, scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy to investigate the microstructure and morphology. The differential scanning calorimetry was employed to confirm the improved thermal stability. The electrochemical properties were evaluated by the constant-current charge/discharge tests. The TiP_2O_7 coating layer is effectively suppressing the structural degradation and ameliorating the surface status of LiNi_(0.8)Co_(0.15)Al_(0.05)O_2 particles, and the intrinsic rhombohedral layered structure of TiP_2O_7-coated LiNi_(0.8)Co_(0.15)Al_(0.05)O_2 was well maintained during the long-term cycling process, while the surface structure of pristine LiNi_(0.8)Co_(0.15)Al_(0.05)O_2 was degraded from rhombohedral R3 m layered structure to cubic rock-salt structure. The charged state Ni^(4+) ions will easily transform into Ni^(2+) when the electrolytes oxidized at the interface of cathode/electrolytes and formed the cubic rock-salt NiO type structure, and the cubic rock-salt structure without electrochemical activity on the surface of LiNi_(0.8)Co_(0.15)Al_(0.05)O_2 particles will finally accelerate capacity fading. The thermal stability and cyclic performances of the LiNi_(0.8)Co_(0.15)Al_(0.05)O_2 electrode were remarkably improved by TiP_2O_7 coating, the total amount of heat release corresponding to the intensity of thermal runaway were 1075.5 and 964.6 J/g for pristine LiNi_(0.8)Co_(0.15)Al_(0.05)O_2 and TiP_2O_7-coated LiNi_(0.8)Co_(0.15)Al_(0.05)O_2 respectively, the pouch shaped full cells that employed TiP 2 O7-coated LiNi_(0.8)Co_(0.15)Al_(0.05)O_2 as cathode were able to perform more than 2200 cycles at 25 ℃ and more than 1000 cycles at 45 ℃ before the capacity retention fading to 80%.展开更多
