NCM622 - Lithium Nickel Manganese Cobalt Oxide, Cathode Material

A rich-nickel battery cathode material for high powder Li-ion batteries (Ni : Co : Mn = 6 : 2 : 2)

Overview | Product Information | Related Products

Lithium Nickel Manganese Cobalt Oxide Powder (NMC622), CAS number 346417-97-8/182442-95-1, has a chemical formula of LiNi_0.6Mn_0.2Co_0.2O₂. NMC622 is named after the composition ratio of nickel, manganese and cobalt as 6 : 2 : 2. Being a nickel-rich cathode material, NMC622 displays greater capacity extracted at the same potential and improved stability, compared to low-nickel NMC cathode materials.

NMC622 can be further modified with an ultra-thin CeO₂ coating. The modification overcomes the H2/H3 phase transition, reducing Ni/Li mixing, thus leading to a long battery life. At the end of the 50th cycle test, ceria-coated NMC622 gains 14% capacity while pristine NCM622 loses 18% of its initial capacity. This behaviour indicates activation for efficient Li diffusion, mediated by enhanced the electronic interaction between ceria and NMC.

NMC622 has also demonstrated good oxygen evolution reaction activity in 1 M KOH solution. It shows an overpotential of 280 mV to pass 100 mA·cm⁻² and a low Tafel slope of 42 mV·dec⁻¹.
