Abstract:Synthesis of positive electrode materials for lithium ion batteries (LIB) plays a major role in battery performance. In this study, we first investigated the effect of chelating agents and calcination temperature on the production of LiNi0.8Co0.2O2 cathode material. Then, by using mechanical mixing and sol-gel methods, tin oxide was introduced in the LiNi0.8Co0.2O2 powder to enhance the electrochemical performance. The effects of chelating agents (citric acid, oxalic acid, adipic acid), calcination temperature… 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.
