HIGH CAPACITY HIGH RATE MATERIALS

摘要

A method for manufacturing a novel composition V2O4.5(OH) and the composition per se, wherein the materials are suitable for intercalation of greater than 2.4 Li per V2O5 to yield theoretical energy density of greater than 970 Wh/kg of cathode active material, the intercalation being completely reversible, and synthesis of these materials from sol and gels. Devices incorporating these materials are also disclosed.
