Funded Activity Summary

Composite cathode Materials for Lithium Ion Battery Using Chemical Coating Technique. Commercial Li-ion batteries have LiCoO2 as a cathode material due to its excellent cycle stability and rate capability. However, cobalt is a relatively rare and very expensive transition metal, so attention has been focussed on LiMn2O4 with a view to taking advantage of its low cost and environmentally friendly nature compared to LiCoO2. The aim of this develop new composite cathode materials by using a LCo02. The aim of this project is to develop new composite cathode materials by using a LCo02 coating on Li-Mn-0 materials. The expected outcome is a new cathode material which has high-energy capacity, long cycle life and low cost.
