Synthesis of porous LiMn2O4 hollow nanofibers by electrospinning with extraordinary lithium storage properties

We report the extraordinary lithium storage performance of porous LiMn2O4 hollow nanofibers synthesized by electrospinning technique. The electrospun LiMn2O4 hollow nanofibers retained 87% of initial reversible capacity after 1250 cycles at the 1 C rate. Further, excellent cycling profiles at 55 °C...

Description
Summary:We report the extraordinary lithium storage performance of porous LiMn2O4 hollow nanofibers synthesized by electrospinning technique. The electrospun LiMn2O4 hollow nanofibers retained 87% of initial reversible capacity after 1250 cycles at the 1 C rate. Further, excellent cycling profiles at 55 °C and cubic spinel to tetragonal phase transformation are also noted.
