Description
Summary:<p>The lithiated phase LiMn2O4 is a potential cathode materials for high-energy batteries because it can be used in conjunction with suitable carbon anode materials to produce the so-called lithium ion cells. The kinetic transformation of LiMn2O4 into manganese dioxide (MnO2) in sulphuric acid has been studied. It is assumed that the conversion of LiMn2O4 into R-MnO2 is a first order autocatalytic reaction. The transformation actually proceeds through the spinel &lambda
