Summary: A novel in situ self-catalyzed synthetic strategy is explored to prepare graphitic carbon nanotubes (CNTs) wrapped and amorphous nanocarbon shells coated LiFePO4 microclews (LiFePO4@C@CNT) at one-step. The results show that the in situ intergrowths of CNTs and LiFePO4@C could be realized by the catalytic effect of Fe3C nanoparticles based on the tip-growth mechanism.

Summary: Mn and K co-doped lithium iron phosphate (LFP) cathode materials were successfully synthesized by solvothermal method. The contributions of the two dopants to the LFP were investigated using density functional theory (DFT) calculations and various characterizations. The presence of Mn improved the energy band and diffusion kinetics, while K contributed to the stabilized structure and widened diffusion channel. The co-doped LFP cathode exhibited a high capacity of 145 mAhmiddotg-1 at 5 C and maintained a 96% retention rate after 400 cycles. The interaction between the two doping elements was discussed by comparing with a control group, and the KLMFP samples showed superior electrochemical performance in cyclic voltammetry (CV), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), and charge-discharge cycling tests.

Summary: The redox behavior of potassium manganese hexacianoferrate in magnesium electrolytes has been studied and it was found that ion deintercalation during oxidation and contamination from the membrane can interfere with the electrochemical response. In the absence of alkaline ions, pre-oxidized manganese hexacianoferrate can reversibly intercalate magnesium, but the specific intercalation position cannot be determined with the available experimental data.

Summary: This article presents the results of a systematic study on the electrochemical performance and mechanical changes in two types of commercial batteries with different anode chemistry. The study reveals that the swelling of anode layers in batteries with silicon-based components causes deformations in the jelly roll structure, but the presence of a small percentage of silicon does not significantly impact the cycling performance of the cells within the relevant state-of-health range for electric vehicles (EVs). The research suggests that there is room for improving the cell capacities by increasing the silicon loading in composite anodes to meet the increasing demands on EVs.

Summary: By coupling electrochemical testing to operando synchrotron based X-ray absorption and powder diffraction experiments, blended positive electrodes consisting of LiMn2O4 spinel (LMO) and layered LiNi0.5Mn0.3Co0.2O2 (NMC) were studied to understand their redox mechanism. It was found that blending NMC with LMO can enhance energy density at high rates, with the blend containing 25% LMO showing the best performance. Testing with a special electrochemical setup revealed that the effective current load on each blend component can vary significantly from the nominal rate and also changes with SoC. Operando studies allowed monitoring of the oxidation state evolution and changes in crystal structure, in line with the expected behavior of individual components considering their electrochemical current loads.
