Effects of the preheating temperature on flame-assisted spray pyrolysis of nickel-rich cathode materials by Zhang, Jianan, Muldoon, Valerie L, Deng, Sili

“…Much research effort has been devoted to develop novel synthesis methods for LIB cathodes, since traditional methods such as coprecipitation suffer long synthesis time and complex steps. In contrast, flame-based spray methods have great potential in manufacturing LIB cathode materials due to their features such as continuous, fast, and scalable operation. …”
