Abstract
Large-scale lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) are overtaking as power sources for electric vehicles and grid-scale energy-storage systems for renewable sources. Accordingly, large amounts of LIBs are expected to be discarded in the near future. Recycling technologies for waste LIBs, particularly for valuable rare metals (Li, Co, and Ni) used in cathode active materials, need to be developed to construct continuous LIB supply chains. Various recovery methodologies, such as pyrometallurgy, hydrometallurgy, and direct recycling, as well as their advantages, disadvantages, and technical features, are briefly introduced. We review the electrochemical performances of these cathode active materials based on recycled rare metals from LIB waste. Moreover, the physicochemical properties and electrochemical performance of the cathode active materials with impurities incorporated during recycling, which have high academic significance, are outlined. In hydrometallurgy-based LIB recycling, the complete removal of impurities in cathode active materials is not realistic for the mass and sustainable production of LIBs; thus, optimal control of the impurity levels is of significance. Meanwhile, the studies on the direct recycling of LIB showed the necessity of almost complete impurity removal and restoration of physicochemical properties in cathode active materials. This review provides a survey of the technological outlook of reusing cathode active materials from waste LIBs.

Abstract
Nowadays, lithium-ion batteries are undoubtedly known as the most promising rechargeable batteries. However, these batteries face some big challenges, like not having enough energy and not lasting long enough, that should be addressed. Ternary Ni-rich Li[NixCoyMnz]O2 and Li[NixCoyAlz]O2 cathode materials stand as the ideal candidate for a cathode active material to achieve high capacity and energy density, low manufacturing cost, and high operating voltage. However, capacity gain from Ni enrichment is nullified by the concurrent fast capacity fading because of issues such as gas evolution, microcracks propagation and pulverization, phase transition, electrolyte decomposition, cation mixing, and dissolution of transition metals at high operating voltage, which hinders their commercialization. In order to tackle these problems, researchers conducted many strategies, including elemental doping, surface coating, and particle engineering. This review paper mainly talks about origins of problems and their mechanisms leading to electrochemical performance deterioration for Ni-rich cathode materials and modification approaches to address the problems.

Abstract
Sodium-ion batteries have recently aroused the interest of industries as possible replacements for lithium-ion batteries in some areas. With their high theoretical capacities and competitive prices, P2-type layered oxides (NaxTMO2) are among the obvious choices in terms of cathode materials. On the other hand, many of these materials are unstable in air due to their reactivity toward water and carbon dioxide. Here, Na0.67Mn0.9Ni0.1O2 (NMNO), one of such materials, has been synthesized by a classic sol-gel method and then exposed to air for several weeks as a way to allow a simple and reproducible transition toward a Na-rich birnessite phase. The transition between the anhydrous P2 to the hydrated birnessite structure has been followed via periodic XRD analyses, as well as neutron diffraction ones. Extensive electrochemical characterizations of both pristine NMNO and the air-exposed one vs sodium in organic medium showed comparable performances, with capacities fading from 140 to 60 mAh g-1 in around 100 cycles. Structural evolution of the air-exposed NMNO has been investigated both with ex situ synchrotron XRD and Raman. Finally, DFT analyses showed similar charge compensation mechanisms between P2 and birnessite phases, providing a reason for the similarities between the electrochemical properties of both materials.

Abstract
Ni-rich materials have received widespread attention as one of the mainstream cathodes in high-energy-density lithium-ion batteries for electric vehicles. However, Ni-rich cathodes suffer from severe surface reconstruction in a high delithiation state, constraining their rate capabilities and life span. Herein, a novel P2-type NaxNi0.33Mn0.67O2 (NNMO) is rationally selected as the surficial modification layer for LiNi0.8Co0.1Mn0.1O2 (NCM811) cathode, which undergoes a spontaneous Na+-Li+ exchange reaction to form an O2-type LixNi0.33Mn0.67O2 (LNMO) layer revealed by combining X-ray diffraction and solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance techniques. Owing to the specific oxygen stacking sequence, O2-type LNMO significantly prevents the initial layered structure of NCM811 from transforming to the spinel or rock-salt phases during cycling, thus effectively maintaining the integral surficial structure and the Li+ diffusion channels of NCM811. Eventually, the NNMO@NCM811 electrode yields enhanced thermal stability, outstanding rate performance, and long cycling stability with 80% capacity retention after 294 cycles at 200 mA g-1, and its life span is further extended to 531 cycles while enhancing the mechanical stability of the bulk material.

Abstract
Ni-rich cathode materials have become promising candidates for lithium-based automotive batteries due to the obvious advantage of electrochemical performance. Increasing the operating voltage is an effective means to obtain a higher specific capacity, which also helps to achieve the goal of high energy density (capacity × voltage) of power lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). However, under high operating voltage, surface degradation will occur between Ni-rich cathode materials and the electrolytes, forming a solid interface film with high resistance, releasing O2, CO2 and other gases. Ni-rich cathode materials have serious cation mixing, resulting in an adverse phase transition. In addition, the high working voltage will cause microcracks, leading to contact failure and repeated surface reactions. In order to solve the above problems, researchers have proposed many modification methods to deal with the decline of electrochemical performance for Ni-rich cathode materials under high voltage such as element doping, surface coating, single-crystal fabrication, structural design and multifunctional electrolyte additives. This review mainly introduces the challenges and modification strategies for Ni-rich cathode materials under high voltage operation. The future application and development trend of Ni-rich cathode materials for high specific energy LIBs are projected.

Abstract
Among the existing commercial cathodes, Ni-rich NCM are the most promising candidates for next-generation LIBs because of their high energy density, relatively good rate capability, and reasonable cycling performance. However, the surface degradation, mechanical failure and thermal instability of these materials are the major causes of cell performance decay and rapid capacity fading. This is a huge challenge to commercializing these materials widely for use in LIBs. In particular, the thermal instability of Ni-rich NCM cathode active materials is the main issue of LIBs safety hazards. Hence, this review will recapitulate the current progress in this research direction by including widely recognized research outputs and recent findings. Moreover, with an extensive collection of detailed mechanisms on atomic, molecular and micrometer scales, this review work can complement the previous failure, degradation and thermal instability studies of Ni-rich NMC. Finally, this review will summarize recent research focus and recommend future research directions for nickel-rich NCM cathodes.

Abstract
Current lithium-ion battery technology is approaching the theoretical energy density limitation, which is challenged by the increasing requirements of ever-growing energy storage market of electric vehicles, hybrid electric vehicles, and portable electronic devices. Although great progresses are made on tailoring the electrode materials from methodology to mechanism to meet the practical demands, sluggish mass transport, and charge transfer dynamics are the main bottlenecks when increasing the areal/volumetric loading multiple times to commercial level. Thus, this review presents the state-of-the-art developments on rational design of the commercialization-driven electrodes for lithium batteries. First, the basic guidance and challenges (such as electrode mechanical instability, sluggish charge diffusion, deteriorated performance, and safety concerns) on constructing the industry-required high mass loading electrodes toward commercialization are discussed. Second, the corresponding design strategies on cathode/anode electrode materials with high mass loading are proposed to overcome these challenges without compromising energy density and cycling durability, including electrode architecture, integrated configuration, interface engineering, mechanical compression, and Li metal protection. Finally, the future trends and perspectives on commercialization-driven electrodes are offered. These design principles and potential strategies are also promising to be applied in other energy storage and conversion systems, such as supercapacitors, and other metal-ion batteries.

Comprehensive Study of Li+/Ni2+ Disorder in Ni-Rich NMCs Cathodes for Li-Ion Batteries. Symmetry (Basel) 2021.

Abstract
The layered oxides LiNixMnyCozO2 (NMCs, x + y + z = 1) with high nickel content (x ≥ 0.6, Ni-rich NMCs) are promising high-energy density-positive electrode materials for Li-ion batteries. Their electrochemical properties depend on Li+/Ni2+ cation disordering originating from the proximity of the Li+ and Ni2+ ionic radii. We synthesized a series of the LiNi0.8Mn0.1Co0.1O2 NMC811 adopting two different disordering schemes: Ni for Li substitution at the Li site in the samples finally annealed in air, and close to Ni↔Li antisite disorder in the oxygen-annealed samples. The defect formation scenario was revealed with Rietveld refinement from powder X-ray diffraction data, and then the reliability of semi-quantitative parameters, such as I003/I104 integral intensity ratio and c/(2√6a) ratio of pseudocubic subcell parameters, was verified against the refined defect concentrations. The I003/I104 ratio can serve as a quantitative measure of g(NiLi) only after explicit correction of intensities for preferred orientation. Being normalized by the total scattering power of the unit cell, the I003/I104 ratio depends linearly on g(NiLi) for each disordering scheme. The c/(2√6a) ratio appears to be not reliable and cannot be used for a quantitative estimate of g(NiLi). In turn, the volume of the R3¯m unit cell correlates linearly with g(NiLi), at least for defect concentrations not exceeding 5%. The microscopy techniques such as high-resolution high-angle annular dark-field scanning transmission electron microscopy (HAADF-STEM) and electron diffraction tomography (EDT) allow us to study the materials locally, still, there is no proper quantitative approach for comprehensive analysis of defects. In the present work, the TEM-assisted quantitative Li+/Ni2+ disordering analysis with EDT and HAADF-STEM in six Ni-rich NMC samples with various defects content is demonstrated. Noteworthy, while PXRD and EDT methods demonstrate overall defect amounts, HAADF-STEM allows us to quantitatively distinguish regions with various disordering extents. Therefore, the combination of mentioned PXRD and TEM methods gives the full picture of Li+/Ni2+ mixing defects in Ni-rich NMCs.

Abstract
Residual sulfate (SO4 2- ) in precursor Ni0.8 Co0.15 Mn0.05 (OH)2 (pre-NCM) is commonly regarded as being harmful to Li[Ni0.8 Co0.15 Mn0.05 ]O2 (NCM) performance, leading to significant performance losses and also hampering the electrode fabrication. Therefore, manufacturers try their best to lower sulfate contents in pre-NCM. However, how the sulfate affects the cathode materials is not systematically studied. To address these issues, NCM was synthesized with different amounts of intentionally added sulfate (NH4 )2 SO4 in pre-NCM. It was demonstrated that anionic SO4 2- doped in NCM could influence the grain size in sintering process and stabilize the layer structure during the charge-discharge process at a certain doping amount. The first-principles calculations suggested that the SO4 2- doped in the transition metal layer could effectively facilitate Li+ diffusion in the lattice. SO4 2- doping could reduce the energy barrier for Li+ migration and then suppress drastic contraction of the c axis during cycling. The phase transition of H2 to H3 caused by c axis contraction was suppressed and the cycling performance was enhanced. The capacity retention could reach 80.9 (0.2 C) and 80.4 % (1 C) after 380 and 240 cycles in coin cells, respectively. These findings illustrate that a certain amount of sulfate could be beneficial to NCM cathodes.

[PMID: 32860491 PMCID: PMC7821189 DOI: 10.1002/cssc.202001915] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/10/2020] [Revised: 08/28/2020] [Indexed: 06/01/2023]
Abstract
The demand for lithium-ion batteries has risen dramatically over the years. Unfortunately, many of the essential component materials, such as cobalt and lithium, are both costly and of limited abundance. For this reason, the recycling of lithium-ion battery electrodes is crucial to ensuring the availability of such resources and protecting the environment. Herein, a simple and scalable recycling process was developed for the prototypical cathode active material Li1.02 (Ni0.8 Co0.1 Mn0.1 )0.98 O2 (NCM-811). By a combination of thermal decomposition and dissolution steps, spent NCM could be converted into Li2 CO3 and a transition metal oxalate blend, which served as precursors for new NCM. Importantly, it was also possible to individually separate each transition metal during the recycling process, thereby extending the utility of this method to a wide variety of NCM compositions. Each intermediate in the process was investigated by scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction. Additionally, the elemental composition of the recycled NCM-811 was confirmed using inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectroscopy and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. The electrochemical performance of the recycled NCM-811 exhibited up to 80 % of the initial capacity of pristine NCM-811. The method presented herein serves as an efficient and environmentally benign alternative to existing recycling methods for lithium-ion battery electrode materials.

Abstract
Nickel-rich layered LiNi1−x−yCoxMnyO2 (LiMO2) is widely investigated as a promising cathode material for advanced lithium-ion batteries used in electric vehicles, and a much higher energy density in higher cut-off voltage is emergent for long driving range. However, during extensive cycling when charged to higher voltage, the battery exhibits severe capacity fading and obvious structural collapse, which leads to poor cycle stability. Herein, Sn-doping and in situ formed Li2SnO3 nano-coating layer co-modified spherical-like LiNi0.5Co0.2Mn0.3O2 samples were successfully prepared using a facile molten salt method and demonstrated excellent cyclic properties and high-rate capabilities. The transition metal site was expected to be substituted by Sn in this study. The original crystal structures of the layered materials were influenced by Sn-doping. Sn not only entered into the crystal lattice of LiNi0.5Co0.2Mn0.3O2, but also formed Li+-conductive Li2SnO3 on the surface. Sn-doping and Li2SnO3 coating layer co-modification are helpful to optimize the ratio of Ni2+ and Ni3+, and to improve the conductivity of the cathode. The reversible capacity and rate capability of the cathode are improved by Sn-modification. The 3 mol% Sn-modified LiNi0.5Co0.2Mn0.3O2 sample maintained the reversible capacity of 146.8 mAh g−1 at 5C, corresponding to 75.8% of its low-rate capacity (0.1C, 193.7mAh g−1) and kept the reversible capacity of 157.3 mAh g−1 with 88.4% capacity retention after 100 charge and discharge cycles at 1C rate between 2.7 and 4.6 V, showing the improved electrochemical property.

Abstract
Increasing the Ni content of LiNixMnyCo1-x-yO2 (NMC) cathodes can increase the capacity, but additional stability is needed to improve safety and longevity characteristics. In order to achieve this improved stability, Mg and Zr were added during the coprecipitation to uniformly dope the final cathode material. These dopants reduced the capacity of the material to some extent, depending on the concentration and calcination temperature. However, these dopants can impart substantial stabilization. It was found that the degree of stabilization is strongly dependent on the calcination temperature of the material. In addition, we used synchrotron X-ray diffraction during thermal breakdown to better understand why the different dopants impact the thermal stability and confirm the stabilization effects of the dopants.

Abstract
Ni-rich LiNi0.8Co0.1Mn0.1O2 (NCM811) cathode is considered to be among the most promising candidates for high-energy-density lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). However, both capacity fading and structural degradation occur during long-term cycling, which extremely limit the commercial applications of NCM811, especially at a high cutoff voltage (>4.3 V). Here, we design a double-shell hybrid nanostructure consisting of a Li2SiO3 coating layer and a cation-mixed layer (Fm3̅m phase) to improve its electrochemical performance. Consequently, the Si-modified NCM811 electrode shows outstanding cycling stability with a 95.2% capacity retention at 4.3 V after 100 cycles and 87.3% at a 4.5 V high cutoff voltage after 100 cycles. This designed double-shell hybrid nanostructure alleviates side reactions, structural degradation, and internal cracking, effectively enhancing the surface structural stability. This efficient strategy provides a valuable step toward further commercial applications of the LiNi0.8Co0.1Mn0.1O2 cathode and enriches the fundamental understanding of layered cathode materials.

Abstract
The demand for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) with high mass-specific capacities, high rate capabilities and long-term cyclabilities is driving the research and development of LIBs with nickel-rich NMC (LiNixMnyCo1−x−yO2, $$x \geqslant 0.5$$x⩾0.5) cathodes and graphite (LixC6) anodes. Based on this, this review will summarize recently reported and widely recognized studies of the degradation mechanisms of Ni-rich NMC cathodes and graphite anodes. And with a broad collection of proposed mechanisms on both atomic and micrometer scales, this review can supplement previous degradation studies of Ni-rich NMC batteries. In addition, this review will categorize advanced mitigation strategies for both electrodes based on different modifications in which Ni-rich NMC cathode improvement strategies involve dopants, gradient layers, surface coatings, carbon matrixes and advanced synthesis methods, whereas graphite anode improvement strategies involve surface coatings, charge/discharge protocols and electrolyte volume estimations. Electrolyte components that can facilitate the stabilization of anodic solid electrolyte interfaces are also reviewed, and trade-offs between modification techniques as well as controversies are discussed for a deeper understanding of the mitigation strategies of Ni-rich NMC/graphite LIBs. Furthermore, this review will present various physical and electrochemical diagnostic tools that are vital in the elucidation of degradation mechanisms during operation to supplement future degradation studies. Finally, this review will summarize current research focuses and propose future research directions.

Abstract
With the rapid development of plug-in hybrid electric vehicles and electric vehicles, high-energy layered lithium nickel-rich oxides have received much attention, but there are still many challenges due to the inherent properties of materials. The poor cycling performance and initial capacity loss of the nickel-rich layered oxide are associated with the structural stability of the material and Li+/Ni2+ cation disorder. Moreover, the synergistic effect of the vacancy of Li and Ni in the delithiation process aggravates the instability of oxygen, eventually resulting in the release of oxygen. It can cause damage to the stability of the structure and even cause safety issues. In this work, we report that Ce0.8Dy0.2O1.9 solid electrolyte inhibits the release of oxygen and improves the structural stability and safety of the Ni-rich cathode material, which is rich in oxygen vacancies. Besides, Ni2+ could be oxidized to Ni3+ along with the strong oxidation of Ce4+ doping into the bulk structure, which suppresses the Li+/Ni2+ cation disorder and improves the initial Coulomb efficiency of the material. This study successfully designed a novel cathode material structure to provide a basis for the future development of layered lithium nickel-rich oxides, which can be used to improve the initial Coulomb efficiency and cycle life.

Abstract
Nickel-rich cathode material, NCA (85:14:1), is successfully synthesized using two different, simple and economical batch methods, i.e., hydroxide co-precipitation (NCA-CP) and the hydroxides solid state reaction method (NCA-SS), followed by heat treatments. Based on the FTIR spectra, all precursor samples exhibit two functional groups of hydroxide and carbonate. The XRD patterns of NCA-CP and NCA-SS show a hexagonal layered structure (space group: R_3m), with no impurities detected. Based on the SEM images, the micro-sized particles exhibit a sphere-like shape with aggregates. The electrochemical performances of the samples were tested in a 18650-type full-cell battery using artificial graphite as the counter anode at the voltage range of 2.7–4.25 V. All samples have similar characteristics and electrochemical performances that are comparable to the commercial NCA battery, despite going through different synthesis routes. In conclusion, the overall results are considered good and have the potential to be adapted for commercialization.

Abstract
Capacity fading induced by unstable surface chemical properties and intrinsic structural degradation is a critical challenge for the commercial utilization of Ni-rich cathodes. Here, a highly stabilized Ni-rich cathode with enhanced rate capability and cycling life is constructed by coating the molybdenum compound on the surface of LiNi0.815Co0.15Al0.035O2 secondary particles. The infused Mo ions in the boundaries not only induce the Li2MoO4 layer in the outermost but also form an epitaxially grown outer surface region with a NiO-like phase and an enriched content of Mo6+ on the bulk phase. The Li2MoO4 layer is expected to reduce residential lithium species and promote the Li+ transfer kinetics. The transition NiO-like phase, as a pillaring layer, could maintain the integrity of the crystal structure. With the suppressed electrolyte-cathode interfacial side reactions, structure degradation, and intergranular cracking, the modified cathode with 1% Mo exhibits a superior discharge capacity of 140 mAh g-1 at 10 C, a superior cycling performance with a capacity retention of 95.7% at 5 C after 250 cycles, and a high thermal stability.

Abstract
The high energy density lithium ion batteries are being pursued because of their extensive application in electric vehicles with a large mileage and storage energy station with a long life. So, increasing the charge voltage becomes a strategy to improve the energy density. But it brings some harmful to the structural stability. In order to find the equilibrium between capacity and structure stability, the K and Cl co-doped LiNi0.5Co0.2Mn0.3O2 (NCM) cathode materials are designed based on defect theory, and prepared by solid state reaction. The structure is investigated by means of X-ray diffraction (XRD), rietveld refinements, scanning electron microscope (SEM), XPS, EDS mapping and transmission electron microscope (TEM). Electrochemical properties are measured through electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), cyclic voltammogram curves (CV), charge/discharge tests. The results of XRD, EDS mapping, and XPS show that K and Cl are successfully incorporated into the lattice of NCM cathode materials. Rietveld refinements along with TEM analysis manifest K and Cl co-doping can effectively reduce cation mixing and make the layered structure more complete. After 100 cycles at 1 C, the K and Cl co-doped NCM retains a more integrated layered structure compared to the pristine NCM. It indicates the co-doping can effectively strengthen the layer structure and suppress the phase transition to some degree during repeated charge and discharge process. Through CV curves, it can be found that K and Cl co-doping can weaken the electrode polarization and improve the electrochemical performance. Electrochemical tests show that the discharge capacity of Li0.99K0.01(Ni0.5Co0.3Mn0.2)O1.99Cl0.01 (KCl-NCM) are far higher than NCM at 5 C, and capacity retention reaches 78.1% after 100 cycles at 1 C. EIS measurement indicates that doping K and Cl contributes to the better lithium ion diffusion and the lower charge transfer resistance.

Abstract
Layered lithium transition metal oxides are widely used as cathodes in lithium-ion batteries and are continuously being developed to provide more energy. Here, the synthesis and structure of Li(Ni0.33Mn0.33Co0.33)O2, ‘Li0.9K0.1(Ni0.33Mn0.33Co0.33)O2’, and ‘Li0.9Cs0.1(Ni0.33Mn0.33Co0.33)O2’ are characterised in detail and compared with similar studies in the literature. Structural models are evaluated based on the statistical quality of fitting via the Rietveld method with X-ray diffraction data and the use of a range of starting structural models. Critically, this work highlights that the larger alkali atoms do not dope on to the Li sites but rather are likely to be distributed on the surface of the particles which is also evidenced with electron microscopy. This work showcases that care must be taken by researchers when using such doping regimes and the concentration of the dopants.

Abstract
Although intensive studies have been conducted on layered transition metal oxide(TMO)-based cathode materials and metal oxide-based anode materials for Li-ion batteries, their precursors generally follow different or even complex synthesis routes. To share one route for preparing precursors of the cathode and anode materials, herein, we demonstrate a facile co-precipitation method to fabricate Ni-rich hydroxide precursors of Ni0.8Co0.1Mn0.1(OH)2. Ni-rich layered oxide of LiNi0.8Co0.1Mn0.1O2 is obtained by lithiation of the precursor in air. An NiO-based anode material is prepared by calcining the precursor or multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) incorporated precursors. The pre-addition of ammonia solution can simplify the co-precipitation procedures and the use of an air atmosphere can also make the heat treatment facile. LiNi0.8Co0.1Mn0.1O2 as the cathode material delivers a reversible capacity of 194 mA h g-1 at 40 mA g-1 and a notable cycling retention of 88.8% after 100 cycles at 200 mA g-1. This noticeable performance of the cathode arises from a decent particle morphology and high crystallinity of the layered oxides. As the anode material, the MWCNTs-incorporated oxides deliver a much higher reversible capacity of 811.1 mA h g-1 after 200 cycles compared to the pristine oxides without MWCNTs. The improvement on electrochemical performance can be attributed to synergistic effects from MWCNTs incorporation, including reinforced electronic conductivity, rich meso-pores and an alleviated volume effect. This facile and sharing method may offer an integrated and economical approach for commercial production of Ni-rich electrode materials for Li-ion batteries.

Abstract
Al2O3-coated Li(Ni0.6Co0.2Mn0.2)O2 cathode materials were prepared by simple surface modification in water media through a sol-gel process with a dispersant. The crystallinity and surface morphology of the samples were characterized through X-ray diffraction analysis and scanning electron microscopy observation. The Li(Ni0.6Co0.2Mn0.2)O2 cathode material was of a polycrystalline hexagonal structure and agglomerated with particles of approximately 0.3 to 0.8 μm in diameter. The nanosized Al2O3 particles of low concentration (0.06–0.12 wt %) were uniformly coated on the surface of Li(Ni0.6Co0.2Mn0.2)O2. Measurement of electrochemical properties showed that Li(Ni0.6Co0.2Mn0.2)O2 coated with Al2O3 of 0.08 wt % had a high initial discharge capacity of 206.9 mAh/g at a rate of 0.05 C over 3.0–4.5 V and high capacity retention of 94.5% at 0.5 C after 30 cycles (cf. uncoated sample: 206.1 mAh/g and 90.8%, respectively). The rate capability of this material was also improved, i.e., it showed a high discharge capacity of 166.3 mAh/g after 5 cycles at a rate of 2 C, whereas the uncoated sample showed 155.8 mAh/g under the same experimental conditions.

Abstract
Two Ce-Zr-La/Al2O3 composite oxides, CZLA-C and CZLA-B, were synthesized using a co-precipitation method in a continuous stirred-tank reactor (CSTR) and a batch reactor (BR), respectively. Two Rh-based three-way catalysts (TWCs), Rh/CZLA-C and Rh/CZLA-B were obtained by a wet-impregnation method using the two composites as the supports. The physicochemical properties of the samples before and after thermal treatment at 1000 °C were characterized by N2 adsorption-desorption, X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), H2-temperature programmed reduction (H2-TPR) and CO chemisorption. The results indicated that CZLA-C shows higher thermal stability than CZLA-B due to a sparsely-agglomerated morphology. Compared with Rh/CZLA-B, Rh/CZLA-C displayed better reducibility and higher thermal stability and exhibited significantly higher activity in the catalytic removal of the simulated gasoline vehicle exhaust emission (NO, CO and C3H8). Our work can provide a facile and economical synthesis route to advanced support materials and catalysts for exhaust emission control.
