Powder granulation, Ti-doping and thermal post-treatment have beneficial effects on the electrochemical performance of 5 V LiNi0.5Mn1.5O4 (LNMO) spinel materials. It is shown that spray-drying combined with a post-doping process step is suitable to prepare Ti-doped 5 V materials with a defined and highly reproducible microstructure and chemical composition. Powder granulation via spray-drying and thermal post-treatment provides spherical LNMO granules with nano-crystalline primary particles and a 10 % higher specific discharge capacity compared to pristine LNMO materials due to the presence of the partially ordered P4(3)32 spinel phase and the reduced Mn3+ content. Powder granulation combined with a post-doping process step which utilizes titanium-containing sol leads to spherical LiNi0.5Mn1.47Ti0.03O4 granules with uniform nano-crystalline primary particles and a homogenous Ti distribution. The second calcination process after spray-drying as well as the Ti-doping cause a reduced content of the LixNi1-xO impurity phase. This facile sol-gel processing leads to doped LiNi0.5Mn1.47Ti0.03O4 with an increased discharge capacity of 18 % compared to the original material. All the granulated materials show a good rate performance up to 10 C due to their particular microstructure.
