| Research Abstract |
Lithium secondary batteries are widely used as energy storage devices. Although iron fluoride (III) is considered to be an interesting positive electrode material with high capacity, its performance during the cycling using the three-electron reaction requires improvement. In this study, iron fluoride (III) with high surface area has been synthesized by a fluorolysis method and its
electrochemical behavior was investigated.
Properties of the FeF3 products depend on the Fe/HF ratio in preparation and fluorination temperature. They are amorphous and have high BET surface areas (the highest value of 140 m2 g-1). The charge-discharge tests demonstrated that the FeF3 products show a small capacity in the voltage region of the reduction from Fe(III) Fe (II) but a high capacity in the voltage region of the reduction from Fe(II) to Fe(0), resulting in a total capacity near the theoretical capacity for FeF3.
