Author:Gummow, RJ; Liles, DC; Thackeray, MMDate:Dec 1993Orthorhombic LiMnO2 products, synthesised by the reaction of gamma-MnO2 and LiOH in argon at 600-620 degrees C using carbon as a reducing agent, have been evaluated as electrode materials in lithium cells. Products that contained a minor ...Read more
Author:Gummow, RJ; Liles, DC; Thackeray, MM; David, WIFDate:Nov 1993The structures of LT-LiCoO2 (synthesised by reaction of Li2CO3 and CoCO3 at 400-degrees-C) and its delithiated product LT-Li0.4CoO2 have been reinvestigated by neutron powder diffraction. Despite an unusually close similarity between diffraction ...Read more
Author:Gummow, RJ; Liles, DC; Thackeray, MMDate:Mar 1993Rietveld refinements of X-ray data of LiCoO2 prepared at 400-degrees-C and a chemically-delithiated product Li0.5CoO2 using space group symmetries R3mBAR and Fd3m are reported. Refinements in both R3mBAR (layered-type structure) and Fd3m ...Read more
Author:De Picciotto, LA; Adendorff, KT; Liles, DC; Thackeray, MMDate:Aug 1993The crystal structures of Li1.2V3O8 and a lithiated product Li4.0V3O8 have been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction methods. The structure refinement of Li1.2V308 confirms that of Li1+xV3O8(x almost-equal-to 0) reported by Wadsley ...Read more
Author:Thackeray, MM; De Kock, A; David, WIFDate:Oct 1993Lithium-manganese-oxides prepared at moderate temperatures are under investigation as insertion electrodes for rechargeable lithium batteries. The structures of two defect-spinel compounds synthesized by the reaction of MnCO3 and Li2CO3 at ...Read more
