Abstract

Abstract LiNi 1/3 Co 1/3 Mn 1/3 O 2 , a promising cathode material over conventional ones for lithium-ion battery, was synthesized via the sol–gel method. The cathode material was coated by Al 2 O 3 through a modified coating process to improve the electrochemical cycle performance and rate capacity. For samples with thicker Al 2 O 3 coating, there was an increase with a subsequent decrease in the discharge capacity for cut-off voltage increasing from 4.3–3.0 V to 4.5–3.0 V. The Al 2 O 3 coating optimized at 5% can apparently improve the discharge capacity and the cycle performance of LiNi 1/3 Co 1/3 Mn 1/3 O 2 at high voltage. Transmission electron microscope (TEM) images also confirmed uniform coating at this optimized content. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and conductivity test results suggested suppression in the growth of charge transfer resistance and an enhancement in the conductivity for Al 2 O 3 -coated LiNi 1/3 Co 1/3 Mn 1/3 O 2 .
