General description

LiMn0.6Fe0.4PO4, referred to as LMFP 60-40, is a cutting-edge cathode material that leverages the synergistic properties of lithium manganese phosphate LiMnPO4 and lithium iron phosphate LiFePO4. This advanced olivine-structured compound achieves a nominal voltage of approximately 3.8V versus lithium, positioning it as a high-performance alternative in the realm of lithium-ion batteries. With a specific capacity of around 150 mAh/g, LMFP 60-40 effectively balances energy density and safety, making it an attractive option for applications that demand both efficiency and reliability. This LMFP 60/40 is a crystalline powder that has been sieved through a 100 mesh to achieve a particle size of less than 150 µm. It is suitable for various research applications where the intrinsic properties of the cathode material are of primary interest.

Application

This LiMn0.6Fe0.4PO4 LMFP 60-40 is ideally suited for development of high-performance lithium-ion batteries, particularly in applications where safety, energy density, and cost-effectiveness are paramount. Its nominal voltage of approximately 3.8V makes it an ideal candidate for replacing traditional nickel-cobalt-based cathodes, providing a sustainable, cobalt-free alternative that meets the demands of modern energy storage solutions. Our LMFP 60-40, which features no surface coating, is a versatile option for researcher who want to study and control the morphology and coating parameters. For improved performance in fast-charging scenarios, we recommend jet-milling the material to achieve a smaller particle size, such as 1 µm, and applying a carbon coating to the milled material. This approach can enhance the electrochemical performance and facilitate faster lithium ion diffusion, making LMFP an even more versatile option for next-generation battery technologies.
