Problems solved by technology

But pure LiFePO 4 There is a disadvantage determined by the crystal structure: the electrical conductivity is small (about 10 -9 S / cm), low ion diffusion coefficient (about 10 -11 ~10 -10 S / cm), leading to a sharp drop in its discharge capacity at high current densities, and poor cycle performance, limiting LiFePO 4 Applications
The above method uses carbon nanotubes to effectively improve the electrochemical performance of the powder, and the mass specific capacity and cycle performance have been greatly improved. However, due to the insolubility and agglomeration of CNTs, it is not easy to disperse, and so far LiFePO 4 There are few studies on wet mixing with CNT
