However, its low lithium-ion diffusion and electronic conductivity, which are critical for charging speed and low-temperature performance, have become the primary constraints on its broader application. This study addresses these challenges by investigating the impact of Mn, Ti, and V doping on the low-temperature discharge characteristics of LiFePO₄. The article presents the synthesis of LiFe_0.95V_0.05PO₄, LiFe_0.95Ti_0.05PO₄, and LiFe_0.95Mn_0.05PO₄, which have demonstrated impressive discharge capacities of 88%, 80%, and 76% at − 20 °C compared to their performance at 25 °C. The vanadium doping strategy has been found to encourage the spherical growth of lithium iron phosphate material, resulting in nano-spherical particles with a balanced transverse and longitudinal growth rate. This growth pattern is attributed to the interplay between the “Mosaic models” and “Radial models” of lithium ion diffusion. The electronic and ionic transport properties have been analyzed using density functional theory, revealing that it possesses low formation energy at the Fe site. This characteristic allows for stable doping at the Fe site, leading to the formation of Mn–O, Ti–O, and V–O chemical bonds. The doping with vanadium significantly lowers the migration energy barrier and activation energy for lithium ions, thereby enhancing their transmission rate. These findings indicate that vanadium doping is an effective strategy to improve the low-temperature discharge performance of LiFePO₄ cathode materials.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":599,"journal":{"name":"Ionics","volume":"30 12","pages":"7939 - 7951"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2024-10-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142811001","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, different material systems have varying effects on the electrical performance and safety characteristics of HSCs. This paper conducted theoretical research on the electrical and thermal properties of key materials for HSCs to achieve performance improvement. The cathode was composed of lithium nickel cobalt manganate oxide (LiNi_0.6Co_0.2Mn_0.2O₂, NCM622) and activated carbon (AC). It was found that adding an appropriate amount of AC can reduce the internal resistance. However, an excessively high proportion of AC leaded to a decrease in compact density and a decline in electrochemical performance. The optimal NCM/AC ratio was determined to be 9:1. Moreover, a comparative study of different separator materials revealed that the use of polyethylene terephthalate (PET)/ceramic composite separators significantly improves the safety of HSCs, reducing the maximum temperature during thermal runaway by 30 °C, and exhibiting a high self-discharge retention rate of 90% after 350 days at 55 °C. Furthermore, the investigation of different carbon materials for the anode found that hard carbon (HC) possesses larger interlayer spacing, more structural defects, and irregular edge spaces, resulting in superior rate capability, cycling performance, and high/low-temperature characteristics. Through material optimization, the constructed HSCs achieved an energy density of 122.8 Wh kg⁻¹, with 97.2% energy at 10 °C compared to 1 °C, a 99% energy retention rate after 5000 cycles, 76.24% energy at − 25 °C compared to 25 °C, and demonstrating exceptional safety properties.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":599,"journal":{"name":"Ionics","volume":"30 12","pages":"8417 - 8440"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2024-10-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142811327","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, LR-NMC cathode materials suffer from poor rate capability and cyclic stability. In addition, the reliance on environmentally harmful and expensive cobalt resources presents an additional challenge for cobalt-containing cathode materials. To overcome these challenges, two cobalt-free lithium-rich cathode material compositions, Li_1.2Ni_0.2Mn_0.56Al_0.04O₂ (LR-NMA-1) and Li_1.2Ni_0.18Mn_0.57Al_0.05O₂ (LR-NMA-2), are designed and synthesized via co-precipitation method. The structural stability, which has been negatively affected by the absence of cobalt in the materials synthesized, is compensated by the addition of Al, and this objective is clearly achieved, particularly for the LR-NMA-2 material. The initial specific discharge capacity of LR-NMA-2 at 0.1C is 224.1 mAh/g, and the capacity retention after 100 cycles at 0.5C is 78%. Furthermore, the poor rate capability performance typically found in lithium-rich cathode materials is significantly improved in the LR-NMA-2 material due to its high <i>c</i>-axis lattice parameter, which is obtained by the presence of an appropriate amount of Al in the layered structure.
