Research Abstract |
Throughout the studies we have succeeded to prepare the Li-Mn-spinel powder as direct precipitate from the alkaline aqueous solution by using a soft process (hydrothermal method). The reaction temperature was as very low as 15O℃. The obtained precipitate showed nearly as same electro-chemical properties as that of prepared by conventional calcination method. For the ccnvenience of large scale production of Li-Mn-spinel in this method, we further studied the effects of combination of Li-salts and alkaline-salts which were dissolved in the reacting solution. As Li- salts, LiCl, Li_2So_4 and LiNO_3 were tried. Alkaline-salts were LiOH, NaOH and KOH.The best combination was Li_2SO_4 and NaOH.In this case, the obtained Li-Mn-spinel had as nearly same characteristics as that of the precipitated in LiOH solution, nevertheless, Li content required in the solution was far dilute comparing to LiOH solution. The obtained results in 2000 were already presentrd at the following local meetings and international conference. Spring Meeting of Chemical Society of Japan, Spring Meeting of Electro-Chemical Meeting, Spring and Autumn Meetings of Powder and Powder Mettalogy, International Meeting on Lithium Batteries -Lithium 2000-, Joint IRHR & ICSTR and Pan Pacific International Conference 2000.
