Particle size plays an important role in the electrochemical performance of cathodes for lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries. High energy planetary ball milling of LiNi1/3Mn1/3Co1/3O2 (NMC) cathode materials was investigated as a route to reduce the particle size and improve the electrochemical performance. The effect of ball milling times, milling speeds, and composition on the structure and properties of NMC cathodes was determined. X-ray diffraction analysis showed that ball milling decreased primary particle (crystallite) size by up to 29%, and the crystallite size was correlated with the milling time and milling speed. Using relatively mild milling conditions that provided an intermediate crystallite size, cathodes with higher capacities, improved rate capabilities, and improved capacity retention were obtained within 14 μm-thick electrode configurations. High milling speeds and long milling times not only resulted in smaller crystallite sizes but also lowered electrochemical performance. Beyond reduction in crystallite size, ball milling was found to increase the interfacial charge transfer resistance, lower the electrical conductivity, and produce aggregates that influenced performance. Computations support that electrolyte diffusivity within the cathode and film thickness play a significant role in the electrode performance. This study shows that cathodes with improved performance are obtained through use of mild ball milling conditions and appropriately designed electrodes that optimize the multiple transport phenomena involved in electrochemical charge storage materials.

ABSTRACTIncreasing the operation voltage of LiCoO2 (LCO) is a direct way to enhance the energy density of the Li-ion batteries. However, at high voltages, the cycling stability degrades very fast due to the irreversible changes in the electrode structure, and formation of an unstable solid electrolyte interface layer. In this work, Ag thin film was prepared on commercial LCO cathode by using magnetron sputtering technique. Ag coated electrode enabled an improved electrochemical performance with a better cycling capability. After 100 cycles, Ag coated LCO delivers a discharge capacity of 106.3 mAh g-1 within 3 - 4.5 V at C/5, which is increased by 45 % compared to that of the uncoated LCO. Coating the electrode surface with Ag thin film also delivered an improved Coulombic efficiency, which is believed to be an indication of suppressed parasitic reactions at the electrode interface. This work may lead to new methods on surface modifications of LCO and other cathode materials to achieve high-capacity Li-ion batteries for high-voltage operations.
