Abstract

Carbon-coated Li₄Ti₅O₁₂ anode materials for the lithium ion battery were synthesized by using sucrose to improve the electrochemical properties of Li₄Ti₅O₁₂, and the carbon content was then tested. X-ray diffraction (XRD) showed that the coating of carbon does not influence the formation of Li₄Ti ₅O₁₂. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and Raman spectroscopy confirmed that carbon content exists on the surface of Li ₄Ti₅O₁₂. Electronic conductivity measurement indicated that the electronic conductivity of the carbon-coated Li ₄Ti₅O₁₂ material was 3.8×10^-4 S cm^-1, which is higher than that for the primary Li ₄Ti₅O₁₂ material (4.3×10^-7 S cm^-1). CV results show that carbon-coated Li₄Ti ₅O₁₂ shows a larger diffusion coefficient. Charge and discharge tests show that rate capability and cycle performance were improved because of the carbon coating.
