Zusammenfassung: | © 2021 Wiley-VCH GmbH. Understanding the cycling rate-dependent kinetics is crucial for managing the performance of batteries in high-power applications. Although high cycling rates may induce reaction heterogeneity and affect battery lifetime and capacity utilization, such phase transformation dynamics are poorly understood and uncontrollable. In this study, synchrotron-based operando X-ray diffraction is performed to monitor the high-current-induced phase transformation kinetics of LiNi0.6 Co0.2 Mn0.2 O2 . The sluggish Li diffusion at high Li content induces different phase transformations during charging and discharging, with strong phase separation and homogeneous phase transformation during charging and discharging, respectively. Moreover, by exploiting the dependence of Li diffusivity on the Li content and electrochemically tuning the initial Li content and distribution, phase separation pathway can be redirected to solid solution kinetics at a high charging rate of 7 C. Finite element analysis further elucidates the effect of the Li-content-dependent diffusion kinetics on the phase transformation pathway. The findings suggest a new direction for optimizing fast-cycling protocols based on the intrinsic properties of the materials |
