Effects of Microstructure on Electrode Properties of Nanosheet-Derived Hx(Ni1/3Co1/3Mn1/3)O2 for Electrochemical Capacitors

چکیده
Nanosheet-derived Hx(Ni1/3Co1/3Mn1/3)O₂ was prepared by restacking (Ni1/3Co1/3Mn1/3)O₂ nanosheets with large or small lateral sizes and their electrochemical properties in a 1 M KOH aqueous solution; microstructural factors were compared with those of bulk Hx(Ni1/3Co1/3Mn1/3)O₂ (HNCM). The electrodes composed of small nanosheets exhibited very large capacitances of 1241 F·g-1 (395 mAh·g-1) at a current density of 50 mA·g-1, and 430 F·g-1 (100 mAh·g-1) at a large current density of 1000 mA·g-1. These large capacitances resulted from a heterogeneous layer structure with a large surface area and pore volume. The electrodes of large nanosheets, with a strongly interconnected microstructure and a surface area slightly larger than that of HNCM, exhibited good cycle stability and capacitances larger than that of HNCM. Microstructural control through the restacking of (Ni1/3Co1/3Mn1/3)O₂ nanosheets improved the electrochemical properties of Hx(Ni, Co, Mn)O₂.

The cycle life of LiNi1/3Co1/3Mn1/3O2 (NMC) based cells are significantly influenced by the choice of the negative electrode. Electrochemical testing and post mortem surface analysis are here used to investigate NMC electrodes cycled vs. either Li-metal, graphite or Li4Ti5O12 (LTO) as negative electrodes. While NMC-LTO and NMC-graphite cells show small capacity fading over 200 cycles, NMC-Li-me...
