New series of spinel LiNi0.25Fe0.2Mˊ0.05Mn1.5O4 (Mˊ = Cu, Mg or Zn) cathode materials have been purposefully tailored using sol-gel auto-combustion method at low annealing temperature ~ 700°C for 3 h. The XRD analysis showed that all substituted (LNFMO-Mˊ) samples are comported with the main structure of undoped (LNFMO) with crystalline disordered spinel Fd-3m structure. TEM images revealed the octahedron-shape like morphology for the particles and the LNFMO-Zn sample has the widest particle size distribution. EIS spectra evidenced that a typical one semicircle (LNFMO-Mg) was revealed for each cell, suggesting the absence of ionic conductivity contribution. The values of charge transfer resistance (Rct) were equal to 9.3, 6.7, 6.0 and 4.4 kΩ for LNFMO, LNFMO-Cu, LNFMO-Mg indicating that the Zn-doped sample has the fastest kinetic diffusion rate and lowest activation energy of conduction.

Li [ Li 0.2 Mn 0.56 Ni 0.16 Co 0.08] O 2 cathode materials for Li -ion batteries were synthesized by a facile sol–gel method followed by calcination at various temperatures (700°C, 800°C and 900°C). Lithium acetate dihydrate, manganese (II) acetate tetrahydrate, nickel (II) acetate tetrahydrate and cobalt (II) acetate tetrahydrate are employed as the metal precursors, and citric acid monohydrate as the chelating agent. For the obtained Li [ Li 0.2 Mn 0.56 Ni 0.16 Co 0.08] O 2 materials, the metal components existed in the form of Mn 4+, Ni 2+ and Co 3+, and their molar ratio was in good agreement with 0.56 : 0.16 : 0.08. The calcination temperature played an important role in the particle size, crystallinity and further electrochemical properties of the cathode materials. The Li [ Li 0.2 Mn 0.56 Ni 0.16 Co 0.08] O 2 material calcined at 800°C for 6 h showed the best electrochemical performances. Its discharge specific capacities cycled at 0.1 C, 0.5 C, 1 C and 2 C rates were 266.0 mAh g−1, 243.1 mAh g−1, 218.2 mAh g−1 and 192.9 mAh g−1, respectively. When recovered to 0.1 C rate, the discharge specific capacity was 260.2 mAh g−1 and the capacity loss is only 2.2%. This work demonstrates that the sol–gel method is a facile route to prepare high performance Li [ Li 0.2 Mn 0.56 Ni 0.16 Co 0.08] O 2 cathode materials for Li -ion batteries.

Lithium chromium pyrophosphate (LiCrP2O7) and carbon-coated LiCrP2O7 (LiCrP2O7/C) were synthesized by solid-state and sol–gel routes, respectively. The materials were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and conductivity measurements. LiCrP2O7 powder has a conductivity of ∼ 10−8 S cm−1, ∼ 104 times smaller than LiCrP2O7/C (∼ 10−4 S cm−1). LiCrP2O7/C is electrochemically active, mainly between 1.8 and 2.2 V versus Li+/Li (Cr3+/Cr2+ redox couple), whereas LiCrP2O7 has limited electrochemical activity. LiCrP2O7/C delivers a reversible specific charge up to ∼ 105 mAh g−1 after 100 cycles, close to the theoretical limit of 115 mAh g−1. Operando XRD experiments show slight peak shifts between 2.2 and 4.8 V versus Li+/Li, and a reversible amorphization between 1.8 and 2.2 V versus Li+/Li, suggesting an insertion reaction mechanism.

Organic/inorganic hybrid membranes that are based on GTT (GPTMS-TMES-TPTE) system while using 3-Glycidoxypropyl-trimethoxysilane (GPTMS), Trimethyletoxisilane (TMES), and Trimethylolpropane triglycidyl ether (TPTE) as precursors have been obtained while using a combination of organic polymerization and sol-gel synthesis to be used as electrolytes in Li-ion batteries. Self-supported materials and thin-films solid hybrid electrolytes that were doped with Lithium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (LiTFSI) were prepared. The hybrid network is based on highly cross-linked structures with high ionic conductivity. The dependency of the crosslinked hybrid structure and polymerization grade on ionic conductivity is studied. Ionic conductivity depends on triepoxy precursor (TPTE) and the accessibility of Li ions in the organic network, reaching a maximum ionic conductivity of 1.3 × 10−4 and 1.4 × 10−3 S cm−1 at room temperature and 60 °C, respectively. A wide electrochemical stability window in the range of 1.5–5 V facilitates its use as solid electrolytes in next-generation of Li-ion batteries.
