Özet

In this study, a composite of LiNi0.8Mn0.1Co0.1O2 nanoparticles (nNMC-811) supported by three-dimensional (3D) graphene aerogel (GA) was prepared to increase the practical energy density and performance capability of high nickel cathodes. The porous LiNi0.8Mn0.1Co0.1O2 nanoparticle/graphene aerogel (nNMC-811/GA) composite is composed of nNMC-811 and graphene that act as a bridge for electron transfer and acceleration of lithium ion diffusion. nNMC-811 and nNMC-811/GA cathodes characterization data with techniques including X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectra (FT-IR) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) are discussed. Both Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FE-SEM) and Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) made clear observations of the uniform distribution of the cathode active powders over the 3D graphene aerogel structure. The electrochemical performance of the nNMC-811 and nNMC-811/GA cathodes was evaluated by the galvanostatic charge-discharge measurement between 2.5 V and 4.5 V at room temperature using a computer-controlled battery tester. In addition, variable speed capacity ratios (C-rate), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and cyclic voltammetry (CV) analyzes were also performed. nNMC-811/GA hybrid composite structure delivers a specific capacity of 183.15 mAhg(-1) at C/2 after the 500th cycle. It is understood from the FE-SEM images taken after the cycle that there is no deterioration in the structure. According to results, it was observed that the 3D porous structure of the nNMC-811/GA composite facilitated the mobility of Li+ ions, and the excellent electrochemical performances of the cathodes were improved due to the increasing defects as well as the electrical conductivity of GA.
