Abstract:

Prussian blue and its analogues (PBAs) are considered as promising cathode materials of alkali metal-ion or alkaline earth metal-ion batteries due to their simple preparation process, high rate performance and low cost. Firstly, we prepared a series of PBAs containing Fe and Co, and then the crystal structure, morphology and electrochemical performance were characterized through XRD, SEM and electrochemical technologies. Finally, the interaction between Fe and Co in different structures was explored. The results suggested that in the structures of “M1—N≡≡C—M2”, by changing transition metal M1 can notable influence the electrochemical activity of transition metal M2.

Key words: prussian blue, cathode material, Li-ion battery
