제목 Electrochemical Performance of Lithium Titanate Synthesized by Supercritical Hydrothermal Synthesis
초록 Lithium Titanate (Li4Ti5O12, LTO) powders were successfully synthesized in supercritical water condition in 400 oC and 30 MPa with 15 min 6 hours reaction time with or without calcination. As-synthesized LTO particles are flaky and highly porous in nature with a surface area of 12 40 m2/g. Transmission electron micrographs indicate the primary particles to be agglomerated crystallites of varying size between 20 and 50 nm. Effect of residence time and concentration of precursor were studied with a supercritical water batch reactor. Precursor concentration and residence time played a key role in the production of single-phase Li4Ti5O12 powders. The XRD pattern was confirm that as-synthesized particle have Li4Ti5O12 pattern with small amount of TiO2 impurities. The good electrochemical performance is ascribed to nanoparticle morphology of the electrodes that provide short diffusion paths for Li+ for insertion/ deinsertion process. The Li4Ti5O12 electrodes also exhibit promising capacity retention with little capacity loss over 50 cycles at varying discharge rates.
