Investigation of particle isolation in Li-ion battery electrodes using Li NMR spectroscopy
نویسندگان
چکیده
Li MAS NMR spectroscopy was used to study the failure mechanisms of LiNi0.8Co0.15Al0.05O2 electrodes in Li-ion cells. Three sets of electrodes with different degrees of power fade (0%, 9% and 23%) were studied. The three electrodes were charged to various states of charge (0%, 40%, 60%, 80% and 100%) in pouch cells which were subsequently disassembled for NMR analysis. The lithium NMR shifts of the positive electrodes in the different states of charge were investigated. The results indicate that NMR spectroscopy can be used to probe particle isolation in these electrodes. Particle isolation is responsible for the capacity and power fades since some of the active material particles are disconnected from the matrix. This study also clearly showed the loss of electrochemically active lithium as the power fade increased. ! 2005 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

متن کاملFabrication of single-layer MS2 (M=Mo, W) nanosheets using Li battery setup
Lithium intercalation is a convenient method to prepare few-layer and single-layer MS2 (M=Mo, W) nanosheets. This method is, however, very time-consuming (few days) and it is difficult to control the reaction parameters. To overcome these drawbacks, we have proposed a method to use an Li battery set-up to significantly reduce the reaction time (few hours) and electrochemically intercalate lithi...
