Abstract

LiCoO₂ and LiMn₂O₄ particles were prepared in supercritical water under optimized preparation conditions using a flow type cell. The preparation of these oxides was finished within 30 sec. LiCoO₂ and LiMn₂O₄ particles prepared in this study have less than 1.0 μm diameter. These particles exhibited a hexagonal shape. Electron diffraction patterns for LiCoO₂ and LiMn₂O₄ hexagonal particles did not show any rings, indicating that the both particles prepared in this study has a nature of single crystal. The discharge and charge characteristics of the LiCoO₂ were good for battery applications. However, the discharge capacity of LiMn₂O₄ was small due to a presence of large amount impurity phases. On the other hand, the reversibility of discharge and charge processes is extremely high, compared with an ordinary LiMn₂O₄.
