The monoclinic Li 3 V 2 (PO 4 ) 3 cathode demonstrates significant promise for high-performance lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) technologies, primarily due to its outstanding energy density and enhanced safety performance. However, its practical application was hindered by inherent limitations, particularly, intrinsically restricted electron mobility and pronounced capacity fading during cycling at voltages exceeding 4.6 V. To overcome these challenges, this study employs a facile sol-gel method to synthesize carbon-coated Li 3 V 2 (PO 4 ) 3 materials while introducing In 3+ substitution for partial V 3+ sites. Electrochemical evaluations substantiate that the optimal In 3+ doping level of Li 3 V 2 (PO 4 ) 3 (LVP/C-In0.09) exhibits significantly enhanced performance. Specifically, the LVP/C-In0.09 sample delivers remarkable capability, sustaining 131.4 mAh g −1 at 10 C while maintaining 88.4 % of initial capacity after 500 cycles, surpassing the undoped LVP/C sample (initial capacity: 106.5 mAh g −1 ; retention: 75.7 %). XRD analysis indicates that incorporating In 3+ effectively broadens Li + diffusion channels. XAFS characterization reveals that the unit cell expansion is attributed to an increased V-V interatomic distance. Additionally, the controlled In 3+ doping effectively decreases the electrochemical resistance while substantially improving Li + diffusion kinetics. This study proposes a potential strategy to boost the practical application of Li 3 V 2 (PO 4 ) 3 in LIBs.

Vesicular lithium vanadium phosphate/carbon hollow mesoporous microspheres were fabricated using a facile polyvinylpyrrolidone-assisted aerosol-spray-assisted method and subsequent heat-treatment. While changing the content of polyvinylpyrrolidone, we found that carbon content was adjustable on the surface of lithium vanadium phosphate. By optimizing the carbon content among the composites, the electrochemical performance can be enhanced significantly. The results of electrochemical performance tests suggested that the samples exhibited good cycle performance and high discharge capability in the voltages between 3.0–4.8 V. The observed excellent electrochemical performances could be attributed to the proper content of carbon coating and the vesicular hollow mesoporous microsphere structure, increasing the transmission rate of lithium ions and reducing the structural change during charging and discharging effectively.

Lithium vanadium phosphate Li3V2(PO4)3 (LVP)-based cathodes have attracted much attention in pursuit of high-performance lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). In this study, an ionic liquid (IL) has been introduced into the electrospinning process for the first time, successfully leading to the formation of free-standing cathodes built up of LVP nanocubes embedded in N-doped carbon nanofibers (LVP-NC/NCNF). In particular, the IL plays multiple roles in the resulting free-standing cathodes: (i) the IL improves the feasibility of the PAN-based electrospinning system for preparing electrode materials due to its good solubility, resulting in a self-supporting substrate conductive network with good mechanical properties and electrical conductivity; (ii) the IL can act as a structure-directing agent to induce the formation of (100) facet-oriented LVP nanocubes, giving rise to a convenient lithium-ion transport path; and (iii) the IL adsorbed on the surface of LVP nanocubes can form a N-doped dual-phase carbon coating layer during the heat-treatment process, further enhancing the electronic conductivity of the entire electrode. As a result, LVP-NC/NCNF free-standing electrodes exhibit an outstanding electrochemical performance including a high specific capacity, stable cycling performance and superior rate capability. Specially, the LVP-NC/NCNF free-standing cathodes deliver a high discharge capacity of 143.6 mA h g−1 at 5C for a prolonged cycling life of over 1000 cycles. It is highly expected that this facile IL-assisted electrospinning method can be expanded to other polyanion-based cathodes, thus presenting new opportunities for the design and fabrication of high-performance free-standing electrodes for LIBs.

An enhanced sol-gel combustion method was used to synthesize different porous Sc 3+ -doped Li 3 V 2-x Sc x (PO 4 ) 3 /C (x = 0.00, 0.05, 0.10 and 0.15) compounds. The substitution of Sc 3+ into the V 3+ sites of Li 3 V 2-x Sc x (PO 4 ) 3 /C expands the lattice volume along with the enlargement of Li + diffusion channel, which is beneficial for Li + transportation and ionic conductivity improvement. Besides, the Sc 3+ doping content exhibits a great impact on the morphology of Li 3 V 2-x Sc x (PO 4 ) 3 /C composite. The pristine Li 3 V 2 (PO 4 ) 3 /C are constituted of porous particles and nanorods , and the ratio of nanorods to particles can be controlled by adjusting the amount of Sc 3+ doping since the ratio of nanorods to particles decreases with increasing Sc 3+ doping content. When Sc 3+ doping content increases to a certain level (x = 0.15, Li 3 V 1.85 Sc 0.15 (PO 4 ) 3 /C), the nanorods are hardly seen. Li 3 V 1.90 Sc 0.10 (PO 4 ) 3 /C with higher tapped density, better reversibility, smaller resistance and larger Li + diffusion coefficient demonstrates outstanding rate performance and cyclic stability, together with high specific discharge capacities of 130.2 and 92.9 mAh g −1 at 0.5 and 20 C, respectively. Furthermore, a superior specific discharge capacity of 85.8 mAh g −1 was retained at 20 C following 1000 cycles. Overall, a novel approach for the preparation of high-performance Li 3 V 2-x Sc x (PO 4 ) 3 /C cathodes with different morphologies for lithium-ion batteries is provided.

With the rapid development of the new energy industry, the recovery or extraction of lithium from different resources is currently a global research hotspot. In this work, Li 3 V 2 (PO 4 ) 3 was used as the active component for electrochemical extraction of lithium from aqueous solutions. The results showed that although Li 3 V 2 (PO 4 ) 3 exhibited the reversible de-intercalation/intercalation of Li + , it suffered from severe irreversible dissolution loss in aqueous solutions. This problem was successfully solved by titanium doping. The experiments and DFT calculations showed that when the V(2)-site vanadium in Li 3 V 2 (PO 4 ) 3 was replaced by titanium, the resulting material exhibited superhigh cycle stability and lithium extraction rate. After ten cycles of de-intercalation/intercalation, the extraction capacity still reached 11.5 mg·g −1 , and the attenuation was within the error range. Particularly, because of the decrease of the band gap after doping, the electronic conductivity of the material was significantly improved, and the equilibrium time for lithium extraction was within only 5 min, which was more than 10 times faster than that of the conventional LiFePO 4 and Li 2 MnO 4 materials. This work provides a new solution for the green, efficient, and highly stable extraction of lithium from liquid lithium resources.

The vanadium-containing phosphate polyanion LiVPO 4 F has been attractive as a novel 4 V cathode for lithium-ion batteries. Herein, a hybrid cathode containing two active components of LiVPO 4 F and Li 3 V 2 (PO 4 ) 3 was successfully obtained by single-step solid-state reaction. The crystalline grains are coated by an amorphous carbon layer of about 8 nm thick. The composite presents reversible capacities of 102.8 and 98.2 mAh g −1 at the rates of 10C and 20C, respectively. Even at an ultrahigh rate of 100C (14.5 A g −1 ), it remains a discharge capacity of 70.1 mAh g −1 with a high average working potential of 3.5 V. After cycled 500 times at 10C, the obtained sample shows a capacity retention of 78.6%, implying outstanding cycling performance. The electrochemical impendence spectroscopy demonstrates that the hybrid cathode delivers higher lithium-ion diffusion coefficient . It is believed that the electrochemical performance is enhanced synergistically by the in-situ generated ionic conductor of Li 3 V 2 (PO 4 ) 3 . Finally, when charged and discharged at around 4.1 V, the intermediate phase of Li x VPO 4 F is clearly revealed by CV tests, which likely derives from a symmetry phase transform mechanism.

Monoclinic Li 3 V 2 (PO 4 ) 3 (LVP) fulfills safety requirements including superior chemical and thermal stabilities since the oxygen atoms are firmly anchored in PO 4 3− units, however the low intrinsic electronic conductivity strictly limits its electrochemical performance . Herein, to overcome this problem, a rationally designed passion fruit-like LVP@C/CNT composite constructed with LVP grains as seeds, carbon matrix as pulp, and carbon nanotubes (CNTs) as filaments, has been prepared via a facile spray pyrolysis method. In such unique biomimetic structure, carbon matrix encases LVP to reduce its particle size, which is beneficial to shorten ion pathways; Porous structure scattered around carbon matrix facilitates the rapid penetration of electrolyte; 3D CNT networks afford high-speed electron conduction and remarkable structural stability by forming the bridges between LVP grains. Owing to the multiple merits of this biomimetic structure, the rationally designed LVP@C/CNT composite with 3 wt% CNT exhibits high reversible capacity, superior cyclic stability and remarkable rate capability.

A series of Sn-doped Li 3 V 2− x Sn x (PO 4 ) 3 /C ( x = 0, 0.1, 0.15, 0.2) samples were synthesized via a citric acid assisted sol–gel method. XRD patterns indicated that all the Li 3 V 2− x Sn x (PO 4 ) 3 /C samples were pure single phase with a monoclinic structure (space group P 2 1 / n ) and well crystallized. The structural refinement results and HRTEM analysis both indicated that Sn-doping did not alter the lattice structure of Li 3 V 2 (PO 4 ) 3 , but increased the unit cell volume. SEM images revealed that Sn-doping has no obvious effects on the morphology and particle size of Li 3 V 2 (PO 4 ) 3 . HRTEM, XRF and Raman results demonstrated that a thin carbon layer was coated on the surface of Li 3 V 2− x Sn x (PO 4 ) 3 /C samples with a similar carbon content and good quality. The electrochemical performance was evaluated using coin-type half cells. Among the samples synthesized in this work, Li 3 V 1.85 Sn 0.15 (PO 4 ) 3 /C exhibited the electrochemical performance in terms of specific capacity, rate capability, cycling performance. CV and EIS results implied that optimizing Sn-doping contents with x = 0.15 could greatly enhance the structural stability of Li 3 V 2 (PO 4 ) 3 during the charge–discharge processes, as well as increase electrical conductivity with a lower charge transfer resistance and a higher Li + diffusion coefficient .

A facile sol–gel approach combined with a carbon-coating technique via high-temperature thermally decomposing C2H2 has been developed for the synthesis of a Li3V2(PO4)3/C (LVP/C) cathode material employing the biomass of phytic acid as an eco-friendly phosphorus source. The effects of the carbon-coating on the structural, morphological and electrochemical properties of LVP have been investigated. Compared with pristine LVP, the LVP/C composite presents a higher discharge capacity of 127 mA h g−1 at 0.1 C, better rate capability and long-term cyclability in the voltage range of 3.0–4.3 V. Even at a high charge–discharge rate of 5 C, it can still deliver a reversible capacity of 107 mA h g−1 over 400 cycles without obvious fading, demonstrating great potential as a superior cathode material for lithium-ion batteries.

The low electrical conductivity of Li 3 V 2 (PO 4 ) 3 (LVP) impedes its practical application. To address this issue, this study enhances its conductivity by introducing nitrogen-doped carbon nanoframes into LVP. Using phytic acid as a carbon and phosphorus source, and polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) as a nitrogen source, nitrogen-doped nanoframe-modified LVP material (LVP@NC) was successfully synthesized. Importantly, the carbon nanoframes of LVP@NC are entirely derived from the precursor’s thermal decomposition, simplifying the synthesis process and reducing production costs. By optimizing the process parameters, significant improvements were achieved in key performance indicators, including the initial discharge capacity at 1C (132.85 mAh·g −1 ), long cycling life at 10C (98.98 % capacity retention after 1000 cycles), and rate capability at 50C (99.65 mAh·g −1 ). These improvements are attributed to the introduction of nitrogen-doped nanoframes, where the high-temperature decomposition of PVP leads to the formation of porous honeycomb-like structures, and nitrogen doping in the nanocarbon framework introduces defects and active sites, thereby promoting lithium-ion migration and facilitating electrolyte penetration. This simple, novel, and energy-efficient method demonstrates significant potential for the large-scale preparation of high-performance cathode materials.

Li3V2(PO4)3 (LVP) has been highlighted as a promising cathode material for lithium ion batteries, but it suffers from poor rate capability and rapid capacity decay due to sluggish electrode kinetics and vigorous electrode/electrolyte side reactions at high voltage. In this study, an inexpensive aqueous lithium poly-acrylic acid (LiPAA) binder was developed to deftly solve the shortcomings of the LVP material by tailoring the functional groups in the binder. The good adhesion and cohesion properties of the LiPAA binder ensured a close linkage between the active LVP particles, conductive additives and current collector, which formed a stable and conductive network in the electrode. In addition, the reversible H+/Li+ exchange in LiPAA effectively assisted the transport of Li+ ions at the electrode interface, which allowed the establishment of a Li+ conductive pathway without considerable degradation of the electrolyte. Due to these advantages, the LVP electrode containing the LiPAA binder exhibited significantly improved electrochemical performance compared to the electrode that employed the traditional polyvinylidene fluoride binder. The new electrode configuration showed a large specific capacity of 107 mA h g−1 at 70C rate and a high capacity retention of 91% was obtained after 1400 cycles at 10C rate, showcasing the great potential of this aqueous binder in lithium ion batteries.

The large-scale application of Li-ion batteries requires high-performance cathode materials. Herein, a high-activity Li 3 V 2 (PO 4 ) 3 /C composite cathode has been fabricated through a solid-state reaction employing dual carbon sources of poly(acrylic acid) and soluble starch. The effects of single carbon source and dual carbon sources on the physical and electrochemical properties of Li 3 V 2 (PO 4 ) 3 /C are analyzed. The porous structure induced by poly(acrylic acid) and highly conductive carbon resulted from soluble starch enable the composite to achieve large discharge capacities and stable cyclability at high C-rates. At 3.0–4.3 V and 10 C, a large discharge capacity of 121 mAh g −1 (nearly 91% of the theoretical capacity) can be obtained, along with high capacity retention of 88% over 1000 cycles. Furthermore, at 3.0–4.8 V, the composite also possesses larger high-rate capacities and better cyclability than other composites prepared using single carbon source. The dual carbon sources bring a synergistic effect to the enhancement of electrochemical performances of the Li 3 V 2 (PO 4 ) 3 /C composite.
