Abstract
Plasma carbon black(PB) which prepared by plasma pyrolysis of methane was treated at 800, 1300 and $2100^{\circ}C$ under $2\times10^{-2}$ torr. Four different samples including raw PB were added to $LiCoO_2$, cathode active material of lithium secondary battery, to investigate effects of properties of plasma black as conductors on electrochemical characteristics. Based on our experimental results, PB conductors with low amount of surface functional groups and high electrical conductivity enhanced the cyclability and the initial discharge capacity. However, deterioration of rate capability and cyclability were observed (or the plasma black treated at $2100^{\circ}C$ For the plasma black conductor prepared from plasma pyrolysis, the effects of properties of carbon black on electrochemical characteristics were combined results of changes in electrical conductivity and structural properties such as agglomeration of plasma black. The conductivity of plasma black increased with treatment temperature, while dispersion of plasma black decreased. As a result, the high cyclability of cell was observed at $800^{\circ}C$ of heat treatment temperature.
