摘要
Rechargeable lithium-ion batteries with high energy and high power density are required in the application of electric vehicles and portable electronics. Herein, we introduce a type of spherical Li-rich cathode material, Li1.2Ni0.2Mn0.6O2, assembled from uniform nanocubes by a facile polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP)-assisted hydrothermal method. The material with a hierarchical nano-/microstructure exhibits stable high-rate performance. Furthermore, the precipitant (i.e., urea) and the structure-directing agent (i.e., PVP) effectively activated the Li2MnO3 components in the microscale material to achieve a high specific capacity of 298.5mAhg(-1) in the first cycle. This Li-rich cathode material still delivered 243mAhg(-1) at 0.1C after 200cycles and the capacity retentions at 0.5, 1, 2, and 5C were 94.4, 78.7, 76.3, and 67.8% after 150cycles, respectively. The results make this Li-rich nano-/microstructure a promising cathode material for long-life and high-performance lithium-ion batteries.
