Description
Summary:Vanadium pentoxide deposits have been prepared by electrochemical oxidation of vanadyl ions in aqueous solution. They were characterized with the use of a combination of techniques including: X-ray diffraction, TGA, SEM, chemical titration... They exhibit a 2D structure similar to that of V 2 O 5 gels and contain the same number of exchangeable protons and water molecules per formula unit. However clear differences are also observed, mainly related to the V 4+ content, the interlayer distance and their evolution with thermal treatments. The electrochemical behavior of as prepared and heat treated electrodeposited materials was investigated with respect to lithium intercalation. A thermal treatment at T>140°C induces an irreversible decrease of the V 4+ content and leads to a higher specific capacity.
