Understanding Mn-Based Intercalation Cathodes from Thermodynamics and Kinetics
نویسندگان
چکیده
A series of Mn-based intercalation compounds have been applied as the cathode materials of Li-ion batteries, such as LiMn2O4, LiNi1−x−yCoxMnyO2, etc. With open structures, intercalation compounds exhibit a wide variety of thermodynamic and kinetic properties depending on their crystal structures, host chemistries, etc. Understanding these materials from thermodynamic and kinetic points of view can facilitate the exploration of cathodes with better electrochemical performances. This article reviews the current available thermodynamic and kinetic knowledge on Mn-based intercalation compounds, including the thermal stability, structural intrinsic features, involved redox couples, phase transformations as well as the electrical and ionic conductivity.

Spinel compounds as multivalent battery cathodes: a systematic evaluation based on ab initio calculations
Batteries that shuttle multivalent ions such as Mg and Ca ions are promising candidates for achieving higher energy density than available with current Li-ion technology. Finding electrode materials that reversibly store and release these multivalent cations is considered a major challenge for enabling such multivalent battery technology. In this paper, we use recent advances in high-throughput...
متن کاملRemoval of Basic Dye Bromophenol Blue from aqueous solution by Electrocoagulation using Al – Fe Electrodes: Kinetics, Equilibrium and Thermodynamics Studies.
Electrocoagulation (EC) in a batch cell with Al anode and Fe cathode in monopolar parallel (MP) connection was used for the removal of basic dye, Bromophenol Blue (BPB). The effects of current density, pH, temperature and initial dye concentration, on the process were investigated. Equlibrium data were analyzed using four model equations: Langmuir, Freudlinch, Temkin and Dubinin–Radushkevich. D...
متن کاملIn-Situ TEM Electrochemical Processes in Conversion-Based Li-Ion Battery Electrodes
Intercalation-based cathode materials such as LiCoO2 (~140 mAh/g) and LiFePO4 (~160 mAh/g) are predominantly used in lithium-ion batteries because they provide exceptional cycling reversibility [1]. However, these materials have low capacity as they are limited to single electron charge transfer reaction, and thus are unlikely candidates for use in electric vehicles (EVs). Conversion compounds ...

The kinetics of hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) was studied in 1M NaOH at various temperatures (298 to 358 K) on Ni-P-C (composite electrodes. The electrochemical efficiency of the electrodes has been evaluated on the basis of electrochemical data obtained from the steady-state polarization Tafel curves, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and cyclic voltammetry (CV) in 1M NaOH solut...
