Abstract :
Spinel LiMn2O4 was synthesized by a solid-state method. 204468-size battery was fabricated and stored at high temperature. Structure and morphology of the LiMn2O4 cathode were observed by XRD and SEM technique, respectively. EDS was used to analyze the surface component of carbon anode. The discharge capacity fading is increasing with the time, but the cyclic performance is improved after storing. The LiMn2O4 retained its structure. But the intensity of all LiMn2O4 diffraction peaks is weakened. The carbon also retained its structure. But the Mn is detected from the carbon electrode when the battery is stored for 96 h. Cyclic voltammogram curves results show that the resistance and polarization of LiMn2O4/electrolyte is increased after storage.
