Abstract
A new vanadium iron oxide has been synthesized starting from V2O5 xero gel through an exchange reaction. In its Rietveld-determined structure , (FeO6) apex sharing octahedra link V2O5 ribbons and increase the thr ee-dimensional character of the material. This fatter point seems to i mprove the electrochemical behaviour when compared with V2O5. Especial ly, in terms of cycle life, a capacity of 210 Ah/kg is maintained afte r 40 cycles in the potential window of 3.8-2 V instead of 150 Ah/kg fo r V2O5.
