Abstract:In this study, an rGO – like carbon (C) compound was synthesized from coconut shell (biomass), and inserted into LiFePO4 (LFP), as Li-ion battery cathode. Thus, an LFP/C nanocomposite was successfully fabricated using a combination of the sol-gel technique and mechanical ultracentrifugation. LiFePO4 precursors were prepared from commercial starting materials, using the sol-gel technique, and the composites’ carbon weight content was varied between 15% and 30%. Subsequently, the microstructural characteristics … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
