LiFeSi0.03P0.97O4/C composite materials with variations in duration of milling are 4, 8, 12, and 16 h have been synthesized successfully by solid-state process. The iron stone from Tanah Laut Kalimantan used as source of ion Fe and Glucose used as material coating. The result of XRD have shown all of the samples have a olivine LiFePO4 phase except for milling 16 h. The largest electrical conductivity was 1.75x10-8 S/cm observed in sample of 16 h.
This research study about the influence of carbon concenttration as coating on electrical conductivity of LiFeSi0.03P0.97O4/C. Synthesis of LiFeSi0.03P0.97O4/C was carried out different carbon concentrations of 7, 9, and 11 wt%. The raw materials used are Fe2O3, Li2CO3, (NH4)2HPO4, SiO2 as ion Si doping, and glucose as carbon sources. The XRD analysis results showed that all the diffraction peaks in samples were the olivine LiFePO4 phase. From the EIS result, Samples with the addition carbon concentration of 9 wt% produce the highest electrical conductivity values of 4.18 x 10-7 S/cm.
The synthesis of LiFeSi0.03P0.97O4/C (LFSP/C) composites have been done by solid state method. This study investigates the effects of carbon coating on the structure, microstructure and electrical conductivity of LFSP/C cathode materials. The carbon coating on Lithium Ferro Phosphate (LFP) plays a crucial role in determining its electrical conductivity. The variation of carbon content is 0wt.%; 6wt.%; 7wt.%; 8wt.% (LFP-0%, LFP-6%, LFP-7% and LFP-8%). The characterization was performed using X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscopy - Energy Dispersive X-ray (SEM-EDX), HighResolution-Transmission Electron Microscopy (HR-TEM) and LCR Meter tests. The XRD result have shown single-phase olivine (LiFePO4) in all samples. The analysis microstructure using SEM have shown increasing carbon content can reduce agglomeration. The particles size of LFSP is 845.570 nm, and after coating carbon the particles size decreased up to 457.191 nm. The EDX results showed that the amount of atomic percentage for carbon tends to increase as the amount of carbon content increased. HR-TEM images indicates that the formation of carbon layer have formed, but not perfectly coat the LFP particle. The average carbon layer size is 78,31 nm with the size of LFSP particle is 352.82 nm. The LCR Meter result showed that LFP-7% had the largest electronic conductivity (2,275x10-7 S/cm). The carbon coating led to significant enhancement in electronic conductivity from ~10-9-10-10 S/cm to ~10-7 S/cm.
