摘要
A new vanadium borate, V3BO6, with the norbergite structure has been synthesized via an elaborate solid-state reaction. The compound with the highest purity of 76% is obtained by using vanadyl acetylacetonate as the precursor and trace aluminum oxide as the nucleation catalyst. Vanadyl acetylacetonate also serves as the carbon source of V3BO6, which improves electrical conductivity and limits particle size. Trace A1203 promotes the formation of BO4 tetrahedrons instead of BO3 triangles. The unit cell of V3BO6 with a = 10.0202 (4) angstrom, b = 8.5589 (4) angstrom, c = 4.4525 (3) angstrom, and Vol. = 381.85 (3) angstrom(3) in space group Pnma is determined by Rietveld multiphase refinement of the X-ray powder diffraction pattern. The difficulty in synthesis of V3BO6 ascribes to the structural distortion of the VO6 octahedron. The synthesized V3BO6 nanocomposite is a tri-phase composite with V3BO6 (76.14%), V2O3 (18.09%) and VBO3 (5.77%). As an anode for Li-ion batteries, V3BO6 nanocomposite electrode shows an initial discharge capacity of similar to 1071 mAh g(-1) (0.05-3 V vs. Li) at a current density of 10 mA g(-1), and keeps a reversible capacity of similar to 375 mAh g(-1) after 90 cycles under a current density of 50 mA g(-1). Gratifyingly, V3BO6 nanocomposite delivers a high rate capability that the charge capacities are 629, 420, 396, 369, 329 mAh g(-1) at different current rates of 20, 50, 100, 200, 500 mA g(-1), respectively.
