    Microstructure and electrochemical performance of LiFePO4 cathode materials modified with binuclear metal aminophthalocyanines

    The monodispersed LiFe1x1xMxxPO4/C [xx 0.0040; MM = Mn2+2+, Co2+2+, Ni2+2+, Cu2+2+, Zn2+2+] nanocomposites obtained by LiFePO4 modified with binuclear metal aminophthalocyanines (M2(PcTa)2O and M2(PcTa)2C(CF3)2)3)2) are utilized as positive electrode materials for lithium ion batteries. The preparation method for these nanocomposites is a controllable solvothermal method using a mixture of ethylene glycol and NN,NN-dimethylformamide as the solvent. The microstructure and electrochemical properties of the different nanocomposites are discussed and compared. The results show that the LiFePO4 samples modified with M2(PcTa)2C(CF3)23)2can improve the initial discharge specific capacity of the lithium ion battery up to 154.2 mAh.g11at the rate of 0.1 C, and 93.5% of the initial discharge capacity could be retained after 50 cycles. This research shows that the proposed process can enhance the electrochemical performance of high power LiFePO4 for lithium ion batteries.
