anode material

Nowadays, the active search for an anode material, which can be used in lithium-ion current sources, takes place. The potential anode materials are transition metal oxides (SnO₂, NiO and others). In this work, submicron NiO powder was obtained using the thermal decomposition of Ni(CH₃COO)₂⋅4H₂O. Besides, a NiO/C composite anode was fabricated and its behavior in the anode half-cell of lithium-ion current source was studied during multiple cycling.

Of interest are lithium-d-metal LiMVO₄ vanadates with a hybrid functioning mechanism and a theoretical specific capacity limit of ~1000 mA⋅h⋅g^-1. The work deals the properties of materials based on LiNiVO₄ with the cubic spinel structure and LiCuVO₄ with the rhombic spinel structure obtained by high-temperature treatment of preliminary mechanically activated systems, methods of modification and discusses the features of their electrochemical behavior.
