Rapid microwave-enhanced ion exchange process for the synthesis of LiNi0.5Mn0.5O2 and its characterization as the cathode material for lithium batteries
Abstract
An energy- and time-efficient microwave-enhanced ion exchange (MW-IE) process is developed for the synthesis of low-cation-mixed LiNi0.5Mn0.5O2 cathode material. The synthesized MW-IE LiNi0.5Mn0.5O2 shows comparable low cation
