Utilizing Diverse Functions of Zirconium to Enhance the Electrochemical Performance of Ni-Rich Layered Cathode Materials

Abstract: Ni-rich cathode (Ni > 0.8) provides a low-cost and high-energy-density solution to the next-generation lithium-ion batteries. Unfortunately, severe capacity fading of Ni-rich cathode caused by the interfacial and bulk structural degradation impeded its application. Herein, Zr doping and Li6Zr2O7 coating are applied to a Ni-rich LiNi0.83Co0.12Mn0.05O2 (NCM) layered cathode material, and the modified material exhibits excellent cycle stability. The 1%Zr-NCM cathode material maintains a discharge capacity of 173.… Show more

“…All of the refinements showed a good fit between the observed and calculated patterns, with R wp factors of less than 10%. The degree of cation mixing between the Li and Ni sites was calculated under the assumption that some Ni 2+ may occupy Li + sites given the similarity between the ionic radius of Ni 2+ (0.69 Å) and that of Li + (0.76 Å). , As shown in Table , the cell parameters of L­(N + CA) were smaller than those of L­(NC + A). Because the ionic radius of Al 3+ is smaller than those of Ni 3+ and Co 3+ , the smaller cell parameters indicate a greater doping concentration of Al 3+ in the crystal lattice.…”

Because the ionic radius of Al 3+ is smaller than those of Ni When the calcination temperature was 400 °C, the diffraction peaks of LiOH appeared in all three XRD patterns, indicating that most of the LiOH had not decomposed.…”

“…34,35 In particular, Zr doping has been widely adopted for the layered oxides with various Ni contents, which is attributed to its effectiveness in improving the battery performance and its low cost. 34,[36][37][38][39][40] Even though the previous studies have verified the positive effect of Zr doping on the cathode electrochemical performance, there is still lack of understanding the beneficial effects of Zr doping mechanism on Ni-rich layered oxides. Specifically, an in-depth study of Zr doping effects on the lattice oxygen stability upon deep charge has not yet been performed, which requires further investigation of Zr doping in Ni-rich layered cathodes.…”

“…[ 18 , 19 , 20 ] There is a broad range of cationic dopants that was investigated for Ni‐rich layered oxide cathode materials including, for example, Mg, Al, Ti, V, Mn, Fe, Co, Ga, Zr, and W.[ 21 , 22 , 23 , 24 , 25 , 26 , 27 ] Especially Zr as a high‐charge cation (Zr 4+ ) has been extensively reported with various beneficial effects, such as forming a strong Zr−O bond to stabilize the layered structure or Zr 4+ acting as pillar in the Li‐layer. [ 28 , 29 , 30 ] The variety of reported coatings is equally extensive, including organophosphates and metal oxides such as MgO, Al 2 O 3 , SiO 2 , La 2 O 3 , TiO 2 [ 21 , 31 , 32 , 33 , 34 , 35 ] and various reports using ZrO 2 or Li 6 Zr 2 O 7 . [ 30 , 36 ] The working principle of those coatings is still poorly understood, but surface protection of the secondary particle by HF scavenging is one of the proposed mechanisms.…”
