摘要
LiFePO4 electrode material with large specific surface area and porous structure can achieve high energy and power capabilities, but current synthesis method is relatively complicated. Here, we report a facile synthesis of porous-LiFePO4/C (porous-LFP/C) nanocomposites, which require no templates or surfactants. The synthesized porous-LFP/C material possesses outstanding morphology with nano-sized, spherical particles, a desirable core-shell structure with uniform carbon film on the surface of LiFePO4 and with a specific surface area of 29.9 m(2) g(-1). The as-obtained porous-LFP/C nanocomposites show excellent rate capability and cycling stability. It delivers a discharge capacity of 143 and 126 mAh g(-1) at 5 C and 10 C rates, respectively, and exhibits desirable capacity retention after 500 cycles. Remarkably, it performed well even at 30 C (83 mAh g(-1)) with the 91% of initial capacity after 1000 cycles. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
