LiFePO4 as an optimum power cell material

Nano-crystallized LiFePO4 has been synthesized with a simple three-step-synthesis technology in the presence of nano-ferric oxide as iron source and polyacence (PAS) as a reductive agent and high conductive carbon source. The use of PAS increases the conductivity and prevents the particles growth. The most feasible calcined temperature and time was investigated and the best cell performance was delivered by the sample calcined at 700 °C for 4 h. This material shows excellent specific capacity and cycle efficiency at high current rates, almost no capacity loss can be observed up to 100 cycles which make it more superior as an optimum power cell cathode material.
