Abstract

The phase-pure LiFePO4/C cathode materials have been successfully fabricated by precursor containing Fe2O3 coated with polyaniline through carbothermal reduction method. The polyaniline coating at Fe2O3 could restrict the growth of crystal and subsequently become electric carbon at higher synthesis temperature. Compared with conventional carbothermal reduction method, the sample showed a better capacity and less than 3% capacity fading after 30 cycles at various charge and discharge rate.
