Lithium vanadium phosphate(Li3V2(PO4)3) has become a potential and promising lithium ion battery cathode material due to its high energy density,good structural stability,safety performance and low temperature performance.The Li3V2(PO4)3/C samples were synthesized by carbothermal reduction method from ball-milling mixture of stoichiometric LiOH·H2O,V2O5,NH4H2PO4 and citric acid.The effects of calcination temperature and time on the structure and electrochemical properties of Li3V2(PO4)3 cathode materials were investigated by XRD and galvanostatic charge/discharge measurement.The optimum calcination process parameters for monoclinic Li3V2(PO4)3 cathode materials with excellent performances were obtained by several experiments.The results show that the Li3V2(PO4)3/C sample synthesized at 850 ℃ for 10 h has the most stable structure and the best electrochemical properties,respectively with the discharge capacity of 119 mAh/g for initial cycle and 118.7 mAh/g after 15 cycles,at 0.1 C and 3.0 ~ 4.3 V.The retention rate of discharge capacity is about 99.7%.
