  The synthesis of novel microstructured LiFePO4 with advantageous nanosheets for Li ion conductivity was attempted. Using layered NH4FePO4•H2O as raw material, LiFePO4 nanosheet was synthesized by the hydrothermal process in LiCl solution. Prepared NH4FePO4•H2O was several tens micrometer sized sheet with about 200 nm in thickness. As Li ion resource, various LiCl solution like deionized water, ethanol, and ethylene glycol were prepared through subsequent hydrothermal process and the effect of a kind of solvents for LiCl solution on the microstructure of products treated by the hydrothermal process was investigated for LiFePO4 nanosheets synthesis. The products of LiFePO4 nanosheet were characterized by XRD, SEM, TEM, FT-IR and ICP. Regardless of a kind of solvents,.. Read More»
