E. Antolini et E. Zhecheva, LITHIATION OF SPINEL COBALT OXIDE BY SOLID-STATE REACTION OF LI2CO3 AND CO3O4 - AN EPR STUDY, Materials letters, 35(5-6), 1998, pp. 380-382
The way of lithiation of spinel cobalt oxide by solid state reaction o
f Li2CO3 and Co3O4 was investigated by electronic paramagnetic resonan
ce (EPR) analysis. The results indicated that lithiation takes place o
nly onto the surface of Co3O4 particles, while lithium ions are not pr
esent in the bulk of the spinel oxide. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science B.V.
