Abstract

The hybrid pulse power characteristics (HPPC) of Li(Ni_0.8Co_0.15Al_0.05)O₂ and Li_1.1(Ni_1/3Co_1/3Mn_1/3)_0.9O₂ electrode materials have been evaluated according to the FreedomCAR test manual and found to meet the power requirements for HEV applications. In addition to its excellent power capability, Li_1.1(Ni_1/3Co_1/3Mn_1/3)_0.9O₂ electrode material has shown much better safety characteristics than the Li(Ni_0.8Co_0.15Al_0.05)O₂ electrode material. To investigate the reason for this finding, Li(Ni_0.8Co_0.15Al_0.05)O₂ and Li_1.1(Ni_1/3Co_1/3Mn_1/3)_0.9O₂ powders were chemically delithiated using NO₂BF₄ oxidizer in an acetonitrile medium. The thermal gravimetric results show that both Li_0.45(Ni_0.8Co_0.15Al_0.05)O₂ and Li_0.55(Ni_1/3Co_1/3Mn_1/3)O₂ obtained powders release oxygen starting from 190 and 250 °C with an overall oxygen loss of 11 and 6 wt% at 600 °C, respectively. The reactivity of the delithiated powders with several electrolytes was studied by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and accelerated rate calorimetry (ARC) techniques. The relationship between the safety characteristics of Li_0.45(Ni_0.8Co_0.15Al_0.05)O₂ and Li_0.55(Ni_1/3Co_1/3Mn_1/3)O₂ powders and their thermal stability was discussed in light of their structural rearrangement during thermal heating.
