Synthesis of LiMn2O4 by molten salt technique
Lithium manganese oxide powders have been
successfully prepared by a molten salt synthesis using
eutectic mixture of LiCl and MnO2 salt at 900 °C. The
synthesis was performed in open atmosphere. The crystalline
powders were characterized for their phase identification
using X-ray diffraction analysis. The physicochemical
properties of the lithium manganese oxide powders are
investigated by thermal analysis (thermo gravimetric
analysis/ differential thermal analysis), Fourier transform
infrared spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, atomic absorption
spectroscopy, electron spin resonance spectroscopy,
and scanning electron microscopy. This work shows the
feasibility for obtaining lithium manganese oxide at lowtemperature
molten salt flux method
