Abstract
- LiZnTiO/C nanocomposite has been synthesized using phenolic resin as carbon source in this work. The structure, morphology, and electrochemical properties of the as-prepared LiZnTiO samples were analyzed by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscope (TEM), Raman spectroscopy (RS), galvanostatic charge-discharge, and AC impedance spectroscopy. SEM images show that LiZnTiO/C was agglomerated with a primary particle size of ca. 40 nm. TEM images reveal that a homogeneous carbon layer (ca. 5 nm) formed on the surface of LiZnTiO particles which is favorable to improve the electronic conductivity and inhibit the growth of LiZnTiO during annealing process. The as-prepared LiZnTiO/C composite with 6.0 wt.% carbon exhibited a high initial discharge capacity of 425 and 159 mAh g at 0.05 and 5 A g, respectively. At a high current density of 1 A g, 95.5 % of its initial value is obtained after 100 cycles. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
