Abstract

A new treatment of $LiV_3O_8$ has been proposed for improving its electrochemical behavior as a cathode material for secondary lithium batteries. Lithium trivanadate, $LiV_3O_8$, can be prepared in a finely dispersed form by dehydration of aqueous lithium trivanadate gels. The ultrasonic treatment method for Liv30s has been examined in comparison with $LiV_3O_8$ prepared by solutionmethod. The ultrasonically treated products in water were characterized by XRD (X-ray diffractometry), TGA (thermogravimetric analysis) and SEM (scanning electron microscopy). These measurements showed that the ultrasonic treatment process of aqueous $LiV_3O_8$ caused a decrease in crytallinity and considerable increased in specific surface area and interlayer spacing. The product, ultrasonically treated in water for 2 h, showed a high initial discharge capacity and was charge-discharge cycled without large capacity loss. The ultrasonic treated Liv30s can improve not only the specific capacity, but also the cycling behavior

리튬이차전지용 양극물질로서 $LiV_3O_8$의 새로운 합성방법이 그 전기화학적 거동을 향상시키는 것으로 제안되고 있다. $LiV_3O_8$을 수용성 lithium trivanadate 겔의 탈수에 의해 잘 분산된 형태로 얻어진다. $LiV_3O_8$의 초음파처리방법은 solutionmethod에 의해 만들어진 초기상태의 $LiV_3O_8$과 비교된다. 수용액상에서 초음파처리 된 물질은 XRD, TGA, SEM등으로 물리적특성을 확인하였다. 이런 방법들은 수용성 $LiV_3O_8$의 초음파처리공정이 결정성을 감소시키고 비표면적과 공간용량을 향상시키는 것으로 나타났다. 특히 2시간 동안 초음파처리한 것은 높은 방전용량을 가지며, 대용량의 손실없이 충방전사이클이 이루어졌다. 따라서, 초음파처리 된 $LiV_3O_8$은 공간용량을 향상시킬 뿐만 아니라 사이클거동 역시 향상되었다.
