Phospho-olivine $LiFePO_4$ cathode materials were prepared by hydrothermal reaction. Carbon black was added to enhance the electrical conductivity of $LiFePO_4$. The structural and morphological performance of $LiFePO_4$ and $LiFePO_4$-C powders were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and FE-SEM. $LiFePO_4/SPE/Li$ and $LiFePO_4$-C/SPE/Li cells were characterized electrochemically by charge/discharge experiments. The results showed that the discharge capacity of $LiFePO_4$-C/SPE/Li cell was 103 mAh/g at the first cycle. The discharge capacity of $LiFePO_4$-C/SPE/Li cell with 5 wt% carbon black was the largest among $LiFePO_4$-C/SPE/Li cells, 126 mAh/g at the first cycle and 123 mAh/g after 30 cycles, respectively. It was demonstrated that cycling performance of $LiFePO_4$-C/SPE/Li cell with 5 wt% carbon black was better than that of $LiFePO_4$/SPE/Li cell.

Poly (sodium 4-styrenesulfonate) (PSS) is ionomer based on polystyrene that is electrical conductivity and isoviscosity. LiFePO4 has been a promising electrode material however its poor conductivity limits practical application. To enhance the electronic conductivity of LiFePO4, in this study we prepared LiFePO4- PSS composite by the hydrothermal method. LiFePO4 was heated at $170^{\circ}C$ for 12h and then different wt% PSS (0%, 2.91%, 4.75%, 7.36%, 10%) are added to LiFePO4 and milled at 300rpm for 10h. And then the obtained powders were subsequently heated at $500^{\circ}C$ for 1h under argon flow. The cathode electrode were made from mixtures of LiFePO4-PSS: SP-270- PVDF in a weighting ratio 75%: 25%:5%. The electrochemical properties of LiFePO4- PSS/Li batteries were analyzed by cyclic voltammetry and charge/discharge tests. LiFePO4-C/Li battery with 4.75 wt% PSS displays discharge capacity of 128 mAh g-1 at room temperature that is considerably higher than pure LiFePO4/Li battery ( 113.48 mAhg-1).

올리빈 구조의 $LiFePO_4$ 정극 활물질은 $650^{\circ}C$에서 고상법으로 제조되었다. $LiFePO_4$의 전자전도도를 향상시키기 위하여 graphite nanofiber(GNF)를 각각 3wt%, 5wt%, 7wt%, 9wt% 첨가하여 $LiFePO_4$-C를 제조하였다. 제조된 분말의 입자 형태를 확인하기 위하여 X-ray diffraction(XRD)과 File Electronic Scaning Electromicroscopy(FE-SEM)를 측정하였다. XRD결과로부터 제조된 분말은 모두 순수한 결정 구조를 나타내었고 입자의 크기는 약 200nm였다. 5wt% GNF를 첨가한 $LiFePO_4$-C는 기타 첨가량에 비해 방전용량이 가장 높았다. 첫 사이클의 용량은 151.73mAh/g 나타났고 50 사이클 뒤에도 92% 이상을 유지하고 있었다. 첨가하지 않은 것에 비해 43% 증가하였다. $LiFePO_4$-C(3wt%), $LiFePO_4$-C(7wt%), $LiFePO_4$-C(9wt%)의 첫 사이클 방전용량은 각각 147.94mAh/g, 136.64mAh/g, 121.07mAh/g 나타났다. $LiFePO_4$-C(5wt%)에 비해 용량은 떨어쪘지만 순수한 $LiFePO_4$보다 많이 높았다. 임피던스 결과를 보면 기타 첨가량에 비해 $LiFePO_4$-C(5wt%)의 저항 제일 낮았다. 이는 충방전 결과와 일치하였다. graphite nanofiber의 첨가로 인하여 $LiFePO_4$ 정극 활물질의 전자전도도가 높아지고, 따라서 전기화학적 특성도 크게 향상되었다.

Phospho-olivine $LiFePO_4$ and $LiTi_{0.1}Fe_{0.9}PO_4$ cathode materials were prepared by the solid-state reaction. To improve conductivity we carried out electrochemical performance of $Ti^{2+}$ doped $LiFePO_4$. The $Ti^{2+}$ doped $LiFePO_4$ started 3.36 V of flat voltage on discharge curve and showed a gentle decline in the curve compared to undoped $LiFePO_4$ without great changes of capacity. And so, we could achieve to improve electrochemical performance as reversible, cycle life. Similarly, $LiFePO_4$ doping with $Ti^{2+}$ was showed the effect of dopant which was obtained the improved discharge capacity as 140 mAh/g and good cycling performance.

Phospho-olivine $LiFePO_4$ cathode materials were prepared by hydrothermal reaction. In this study, Multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) and Carbon black was added to enhance the electrical conductivity of $LiFePO_4$. $LiFePO_4$, $LiFePO_4$-MWCNT and $LiFePO_4$-C particles were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM) transmission electron microscope (TEM). $LiFePO_4/SPE/Li$, $LiFePO_4$-MWCMT/SPE/Li and $LiFePO_4$-C/SPE/Li cells were characterized electrochemically by charge/discharge experiments at a constant current density of $0.1mA\;cm^{-2}$ in a range between 2.5 and 4.3 V vs. $Li/Li^+$ and cyclic voltammetry (CV).

In this study, nano-crystallized $Al_2O_3$ was coated on the surface of $LiFePO_4$ powders via a novel dry coating method. The influence of coated $LiFePO_4$ upon electrochemical behavior was discussed. Surface morphology characterization was achieved by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), clearly showing nano-crystallized $Al_2O_3$ on $LiFePO_4$ surfaces. Furthermore, it revealed that the $Al_2O_3$-coated $LiFePO_4$ cathode exhibited a distinct surface morphology. It was also found that the $Al_2O_3$ coating reduces capacity fading especially at high charge/discharge rates. Results from the cyclic voltammogram measurements (2.5-4.2 V) showed a significant decrease in both interfacial resistance and cathode polarization. This behavior implies that $Al_2O_3$ can prevent structural change of $LiFePO_4$ or reaction with the electrolyte on cycling. In addition, the $Al_2O_3$ coated $LiFePO_4$ compound showed highly improved area-specific impedance (ASI), an important measure of battery performance. From the correlation between these characteristics of bare and coated $LiFePO_4$, the role of $Al_2O_3$ coating played on the electrochemical performance of $LiFePO_4$ was probed.

$LiFePO_4$ has been received attention as a potential cathode material for the lithium secondary batteries. In our study, $LiFePO_4$ cathode active materials were synthesized by a solid-state reaction. It was modified by coating $TiO_2$ and carbon in order to enhance cyclic performance and electronic conductivity. $TiO_2$ and carbon coatings on $LiFePO_4$ materials enhanced the electronic conductivity and its charge/discharge capacity. For lithium polymer battery applications, $LiFePO_4$/solid polymer electrolyte (SPE)/Li and $LiFePO_{4}-TiO_{2}/SPE/Li$ cells were characterized by a cyclic voltammetry and charge/discharge cycling. The electrode with $LiFePO_{4}-carbon-TiO_{2}$ in PVDF-PC-EC-$LiClO_{4}$ electrolyte showed promising capacity of above 100 mAh/g at 1C rate.
