Effects of Graphene Nanosheets with Different Lateral Sizes as Conductive Additives on the Electrochemical Performance of LiNi(0.5)Co(0.2)Mn(0.3)O(2) Cathode Materials for Li Ion Batteries
In this study, we focus on lateral size effects of graphene nanosheets as conductive additives for LiNi(0.5)Co(0.2)Mn(0.3)O(2) (NCM) cathode materials for Li-ion batteries. We used two different lateral sizes of graphene, 13 (GN-13) and 28 µm (GN-28). It can be found that the larger sheet sizes of g...

description | In this study, we focus on lateral size effects of graphene nanosheets as conductive additives for LiNi(0.5)Co(0.2)Mn(0.3)O(2) (NCM) cathode materials for Li-ion batteries. We used two different lateral sizes of graphene, 13 (GN-13) and 28 µm (GN-28). It can be found that the larger sheet sizes of graphene nanosheets give a poorer rate capability. The electrochemical measurements indicate that GN-13 delivers an average capacity of 189.8 mAh/g at 0.1 C and 114.2 mAh/g at 2 C and GN-28 exhibits an average capacity of 179.4 mAh/g at 0.1 C and only 6 mAh/g at 2 C. Moreover, according to the results of alternating current (AC) impedance, it can be found that the GN-28 sample has much higher resistance than that of GN-13. The reason might be attributed to that GN-28 has a longer diffusion distance of ion transfer and the mismatch of particle size between NCM and GN-28. The corresponding characterization might provide important reference for Li-ion battery applications. |
