Lithium Cobalt Oxide Micron Powder for Li-ion Battery Cathode Application

Lithium cobalt oxide  is a chemical compound with the chemical formula of formula LiCoO 2 . Lithium cobalt oxide is a dark blue or bluish-gray crystalline solid and is commonly used in the positive electrodes of  lithium-ion batteries . As all we may know lithium ion batteries are used in household electronics like mobile phones and laptop and these batteries are considered as the most promising energy storage and conversion device candidates for use in future electric vehicle applications because of having very high energy density. In lithium ion batteries lithium cobalt oxide is one of the earliest founded lithium metal oxides used as  cathode materials . The usage of lithium cobalt oxide started with the studies of Sony. Sony combined the lithium cobalt oxide cathode with a carbon anode and made the first successful lithium ion battery. It was a visionary study because this kind of battery now dominates the lithium battery market. Lithium cobalt oxide is preferred...
