The nickel-rich lithium nickel manganese cobalt oxide (NMC) cathode materials are the driving force of Lithium-ion batteries. Despite the high capacity and high energy they offer, their structural stability needs to be improved. The production method and element doping are among prominent research topics in the studies to increase the structural stability of the Ni-rich NMC materials. In this study, Ni-rich LiNixMnyCozO2 (x>0.6) and Ni-rich Li(NMC)1-vNbvO2 (v=0.2, 0.4, 0.8) were produced using the citric acid assisted Pechini sol-gel method. The physical and chemical properties of pure and niobium doped materials with different nickel, manganese, and cobalt ratios were examined and compared. Discharge capacities, discharge energies, and discharge capacity retentions of all materials at 0.1 C were examined, and impedance changes before and after the cycles were compared. Also, the rate capability tests of the materials at 0.3 C and 1 C were examined. In XRD analysis, it was seen that LiNixMnyCozO2 (x>0.6) samples were produced successfully. In XRD analyzes of Li(NMC)1-vNbvO2 (v=0.2, 0.4, 0.8) samples, it was understood that Li3NbO4 phase was formed as a secondary phase besides the LiNixMnyCozO2 phase. In the capacity tests performed at 0.1 C during the electrochemical performance test process, the first discharge capacities increased as the nickel content in the material increased. At the end of 20 cycles, the capacity retention decreased as the nickel content in the structure increased. It was observed that the initial discharge capacities of the niobium doped materials were lower than those of the undoped ones. After 20 cycles at 0.1 C, the capacity retentions of the doped ones were higher than the undoped ones. In the tests carried out at 0.3 C, the niobium doped and undoped materials showed similarity with the tests carried out at 0.1 C. In the capacity tests carried out at 1 C, there was no difference between the capacity retentions of the undoped materials and the capacity retentions of the niobium doped materials. However, in the cycle tests performed at 1 C, the materials showed higher capacity retention as the nickel ratio in the structure increased.

Cobalt ferrite supported platinum nanoparticles: Superb catalytic activity and outstanding reusability in hydrogen generation from the hydrolysis of ammonia borane
Akbayrak, Serdar; Özkar, Saim (2021-08-15)
In this work, platinum(0) nanoparticles are deposited on the surface of magnetic cobalt ferrite forming magnetically separable Pt-0/CoFe2O4 nanoparticles, which are efficient catalysts in H-2 generation from the hydrolysis of ammonia borane. Catalytic activity of Pt-0/CoFe2O4 nanoparticles decreases with the increasing platinum loading, parallel to the average particle size. Pt-0/CoFe2O4 (0.23% wt. Pt) nanoparticles have an average diameter of 2.30 +/- 0.47 nm and show an extraordinary turnover frequency of...
Development of cathode materials for li-ion batteries by sputter deposition
Erdoğan, Erdem Erkin; Aydınol, Mehmet Kadri; Department of Metallurgical and Materials Engineering (2022-2-10)
The electrochemical performance of Li-ion batteries depends mostly on the cathode material. Cobalt has a huge impact on electrochemical properties and is widely used in cathode materials, but due to its toxicity and cost, recent research is focused on reducing the amount of cobalt in cathode materials. In this study, cathode active materials are produced by magnetron sputtering to obtain the optimum amount of cobalt while optimizing the electrochemical properties. Pechini sol-gel method is used to produce p...
Nickel(0) nanoparticles supported on bare or coated cobalt ferrite as highly active, magnetically isolable and reusable catalyst for hydrolytic dehydrogenation of ammonia borane
Manna, Joydev; AKBAYRAK, SERDAR; Özkar, Saim (Elsevier BV, 2017-12-15)
Nickel(0) nanoparticles supported on cobalt ferrite (Ni-0/CoFe2O4), polydopamine coated cobalt ferrite (NP0/PDA-CoFe2O4) or silica coated cobalt ferrite (NP0/SiO2-CoFe2O4) are prepared and used as catalysts in hydrogen generation from the hydrolysis of ammonia borane at room temperature. Ni-0/CoFe2O4 (4.0% wt. Ni) shows the highest catalytic activity with a TOF value of 38.3 min(-1) in hydrogen generation from the hydrolysis of ammonia borane at 25.0 +/- 0.1 degrees C. However, the initial catalytic activit...
Development of magnesium based negative electrode materials for nickel metal hydride batteries
Eyövge, Cavit; Öztürk, Tayfur; Department of Metallurgical and Materials Engineering (2017)
Negative electrode materials of the nickel metal hydride (NiMH) batteries generally based on AB5 or similar compounds that make use of rare earth elements. The high cost of these elements makes it necessary to look for other alternatives that are more readily available and of low cost. It is also desirable to aim for materials that would have discharge capacity higher than roughly 350 mAh/g, which is typical of AB5 compounds. Magnesium-based hydrogen storage alloys have attracted considerable attention as a...
Electrochemical Performance of (MgCoNiZn)(1-x)LixO High-Entropy Oxides in Lithium-Ion Batteries
Lökçü, Ersu; Toparlı, Çiğdem; Anık, Mustafa (2020-05-01)
High-entropy oxides (HEOs), which are a new class of single-phase solid solution materials, have recently attracted significant attention as an anode material for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). In this study, (MgCoNiZn)(1-x)LixO (x = 0.05, 0.15, 0.25, and 0.35) HEOs were synthesized and their electrochemical performances as the anode material were observed in LIBs. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analysis showed that the increase in the lithium cation concentration causes generation of more oxygen vac...
