Layered structured LiNi0.5Co0.05Mn0.025Mg0.025O2 was successfully synthesized by heating a mixture of β-LiNi0.9Co0.05Mn0.025Mg0.025(OH)2 and LiOH · H2O at elevated temperature. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermogravimetry analysis (TGA) were employed to study the reaction process. The LiNi0.9Co0.05Mn0.025Mg0.025(OH)2 and synthesized LiNi0.9Co0.05Mn0.025Mg0.025O2 were characterized by means of X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscope (SEM), while the electrochemical properties of LiNi0.5Co0.05Mn0.025Mg0.025O2 were investigated by charge-discharge test and cyclic voltammetry (CV). Structure analysis shows the LiNi0.5Co0.05Mn0.025Mg0.025O2 synthsized at 750℃ for 12 h possess a well-layered hexagonal structure and a low level of the cation-mixing of Li layer. Scaning electron micrographs reveal that the morphology of the samples is characterized by spherical second particles of ~15 μm. The analysis from electrochemical test suggests that heating the mixture at 750℃ for 12 h is the optimized synthesis condition for highest initial discharge capacity and best cycling performance. The first discharge specific capacity between 2.8 and 4.3 V at 0.2C is tested to be 207 mAh·g-1 and 92.5% of the discharge capacity remained after 40 cycles.The CV result shows that the multi-doping of Co, Mn and Mg has strengthened the cycling capability.%以β-Ni0.9Co0.05Mn0.025Mg0.025(OH)2和LiOH·H2O为原料通过高温固相法合成了球形LiNi0.9Co0.05Mn0.025Mg0.025O2.采用热重-差热分析了反应过程,采用X射线衍射和扫描电镜对粉末的结构和形貌进行了表征.采用充放电测试和循环伏安测试对材料电化学性能进行了研究.结果表明:750℃煅烧12 h合成的LiNi0.9Co0.05Mn0.025Mg0.025O2为Li原子混排较少的良好层状结构,二次颗粒尺寸在15μm左右,且具有最高的放电比容量和良好的循环性能,在0.2C,2.8~4.3 V的条件下,首次放电比容量达207 mAh·g-1,40次循环后容量保持率为92.5%.
