ABSTRACT

Lithium cobalt oxide (LiCoO2) cathode powders for rechargeable battery have been successfully prepared using urea hydrolysis method. The obtained hydrolysis-derived precursors with different Li/Co molar ratio were calcined at various temperatures. Low temperature phase (LT-LiCoO2) and high temperature phase (HT-LiCoO2) were obtained after calcination at 500oC for 2 hr, and phase transformation from LT-LiCoO2 to HT-LiCoO2 was completely occurred over 700oC. The layered structure of LiCoO2 was well developed with a rise in the calcination temperature. Charge-discharge test show that the lithium cobalt oxide with 1.2 molar ratio prepared at 800oC has an initial discharge capacity as high as 152 mAh/g, and the relatively stable cycling characteristic with 9.2 % of capacity fading was obtained after 40th charge-discharge test.
