Abstract

Two LiFePO4powders have been synthesized, i.e. using a natural ironstone and a commercial FeCl2·4H2O product as the Fe sources, and their characteristics were compared. The x-ray absorption near-edge spectroscopy (XANES) data, Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM) images and Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) micrographs were used to examine the value of E0and the oxidation number, determine the crystallite sizes, and determine their morphology, respectively. Results showed that the ironstone- and commercial-based LFP powders exhibited E0values of 7120.2 and 7119.6 eV respectively which are both almost equal to FeO and indicates that they have an oxidation number of 2 + as expected. In addition, the crystallite size of the ironstone-based LFP was smaller than that of the commercial one. Moreover, the SEM images showed that the natural LFP was more homogeneous than the commercial LFP.
