Effects of lattice defects on cathode properties of LiMn2O4 synthesized at low temperatures were investigated. LiMn2O4 powders were synthesized by a sol-gel method. The specific capacities of LiMn2O4 decreased from 134 to 81 mAh g-1 with decreasing heating temperature from 750 to 200°C. X-ray absorption spectroscopy showed that a large amount of lattice defects such as cation vacancies existed and cation mixing occurred in LiMn2O4 calcined at low temperatures. It was found that the low specific capacities of LiMn2O4 calcined at low temperatures were attributed to these lattice defects.

ABSTRACTX-ray absorption near-edge spectroscopy (XANES) was used to characterize the structural and electronic properties of a series of cobalt- and nickel-molybdate catalysts (AMoO4.nH20, α-AMoO4, β-AMoO4; A= Co or Ni). The results of XANES indicate that the Co and Ni atoms are in octahedral sites in all these compounds, while the coordination of Mo varies from octahedral in the a-phases to tetrahedral in the β-phases and hydrate. Time-resolved x-ray diffraction shows a direct transformation of the hydrates into the β-AMoO4 compounds (following a kinetics of first order) at temperatures between 200 and 350 °C. This is facilitated by the similarities that the AMoO4.nH20 and β-AMoO4 compounds have in their structural and electronic properties. The molybdates react with H 2 at temperatures between 400 and 600 °C, forming gaseous water and oxides in which the oxidation state of Co and Ni remains +2 while that of Mo is reduced to +5 or +4. After exposing α-NiMoO4 and P-NiMoO4 to H2S, both metals get sulfided and a NiMoSx phase is formed. For the β phase of NiMoO4 the sulfidation of Mo is more extensive than for the a phase, making the former a better precursor for catalysts of hydrodesulfurization reactions.
