Abstrakt: Nickel-rich ternary material LiNi0.8Co0.1Mn0.1O2 is the promising cathode for lithium ion battery, but it has the disadvantage of structural instability. The common method for modifying its electrochemical performance is element doping, such as sodium, aluminum, magnesium and other elements, because the elements with different types and valences have varied ionic radii and binding energies to oxygen. They are incorporated into the layered nickel-rich ternary material to play the distinct roles. In this work, we investigate the effect of Na and Mg co-doping on Li(Ni0.8Co0.1Mn0.1)O2. Our results suggest that the mixed doping has no effect on the crystal structure and morphology of the material. The Rietveld refinement results demonstrated that cation mixing reduced. The electrochemical test results show that the proper amount of Na and Mg mixed doping improves the cyclic reversibility and reduces the resistance of the material. Na and Mg elements can promote each other to improve the electrochemical performance of the material. At the same time we note that high doping concentrations might mitigate the Li diffusion rates.
