Effect of VO43- Substitution on the Electrochemical Properties of a LiSn2(PO4)3 Anode Material

doi:10.1007/s40242-018-8003-7

Abstract

Abstract: VO₄^3- anion was used to partially substitute for PO₄^3- in the Nasicon compound of LiSn₂(PO₄)₃ via a sol-gel method. XRD analysis revealed that the VO₄^3--substituted samples did not have a single LiSn₂(PO₄)₃ phase, and some secondary phases like SnO₂ and SnP₂O₇ appeared. Introduction of the VO₄^3- anion did not prevent the LiSn₂(PO₄)₃ compound from decomposing during the initial lithiation; however the VO₄^3- anion substitution remar-kably enhanced the rate capability and cycling performance of the products because they reduced the charge transfer impedance, increased the lithium ion diffusion, and strengthened the role of the Li₃PO₄ matrix due to the precipitation of the Li₃VO₄phase. Of the substituted samples, the sample with a nominal composition of LiSn₂(PO₄)_2.5(VO₄)_0.5 delivered a capacity of 449.2 mA·h/g at a rate of 0.25 C after 25 cycles and 373.8 mA·h/g at 2 C rate. Those values surpassed some previous reports on LiSn₂(PO₄)₃ and the LiSn₂(PO₄)₃/C composites. Accordingly, the partial substitution of phosphorus by vanadium in LiSn₂(PO₄)₃ is a feasible technique to remarkably improve its electrochemical properties.
