LITHIUM METAL PHOSPHATE/CARBON NANOCOMPOSITES AS CATHODE ACTIVE MATERIALS FOR RECHARGEABLE LITHIUM BATTERIES

摘要

A process for the synthesis of lithium metal phosphate/carbon nanocomposites as cathode active materials in rechargeable electrochemical cells comprising mixing and reacting precursors of lithium, transition metal(s) and phosphate with high surface area activated carbon, preferably phosphorylated carbon.
