Abstract

Effect of the anion nature on the cathodic intercalation of lithium into graphite is studied. The duration of a discharge process and the capacity of Li x C6 electrodes increase in the row Cl ≪ HSO4 < ClO4 < SCN. The highest negative potential of an Li x C6 electrode is reached when lithiating in an LiSCN non-aqueous solution. X-ray diffraction and microstructure analyses confirm the presence in the electrode's upper layers of predominantly layered compounds Li x C6A y , where A is anion. In deep layers, the principal intercalation product is Li x C6.
