Accelerated synthesis of Li(Ni0.8Co0.1Mn0.1)O2 cathode materials using flame-assisted spray pyrolysis and additives by Zhang, Jianan, Muldoon, Valerie L, Deng, Sili

“…As a result, with only 20 min of calcination at 875 °C and without any preheating and ramping steps, the NCM811 sample showed an ordered layered structure and comparable electrochemical performance to those with long-time calcination. Moreover, the current work demonstrated that the shortened post calcination was benefited from lithium-embedded particles that likely improved the uniformity of lithium distribution in as-synthesized powder. …”
