Grain growth kinetics of LiMn2O4 nanocrystals during calcining process

LiMn 2 O 4 nanocrystal was synthesized by coprecipitation using Mn(CH 3 COO) 2 and LiOH as raw materials. Samples were characterized by thermo gravimetric/differential scanning calorimetry, X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscope. Effort of calcination temperatures (600, 650, 700, 750...

Summary:LiMn 2 O 4 nanocrystal was synthesized by coprecipitation using Mn(CH 3 COO) 2 and LiOH as raw materials. Samples were characterized by thermo gravimetric/differential scanning calorimetry, X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscope. Effort of calcination temperatures (600, 650, 700, 750 and 800°C) on grain size of LiMn 2 O 4 was discussed. Results indicated that temperature had positive correlation with grain size. Grain growth kinetics of LiMn 2 O 4 nanocrystal was simulated with a conventional model and an isothermal model. Simulation results indicated that the isothermal model was suitable to fit with data, implying the important roles of diffusion and surface reaction.
