Abstract

Abstract LiNi 0.6 Co 0.2 Mn 0.2 O 2 (NCM622) cathode has been modified by incorporating ZrO 2 nanoparticles to improve its electrochemical performance. Compared to the pristine electrode, the cycling stability and rate capability of 0.5 wt% ZrO 2 modified-NCM622 have been improved significantly. The 0.5 wt% ZrO 2 modified-NCM622 cathode shows a capacity retention of 83.8% after 100 cycles at 0.1 C between 2.8 and 4.3 V, while that of the pristine NCM622 electrode is only 75.6%. When the current rate is set as 5C, the capacity retention of the 0.5 wt% ZrO 2 -modified NCM622 is 10% higher than that of the pristine NCM622. Also, the rate capability of 0.5 wt% ZrO 2 -modified NCM622 is better than that of the pristine NCM622 at various C-rates in a voltage range of 2.8–4.3 V. The enhanced electrochemical performances of the ZrO 2 -modified NCM622 cathodes can be attributed to their high Li-ion conductivity and structural stability.
