Carbon coated LiMn0.5Fe0.5PO4solid solution materials (LiMn0.5Fe0.5PO4/C) are synthesized by rheological phase reaction with stearic acid as carbon source, and characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), BET and TG/DTG. The results show that well-crystallized olivine structure LiMn0.5Fe0.5PO4nanoplatelets with no obvious impurity phase are obtained. The as-synthesized materials are served as cathode of lithium ion battery and investigated by galvanostatic charge/discharge tests. The results demonstrate that, in comparison with the LMFP materials of different Mn:Fe ratio (LiMn0.2Fe0.8PO4/C and LiMn0.8Fe0.2PO4/C) synthesized by the same route of rheological phase reaction, the LiMn0.5Fe0.5PO4/C exhibit excellent rate specific capability, and can deliver discharge capacity of 138, 99, 80, 72, 67 and 55 mAh g−1at respectively 0.1, 1, 5, 10, 15 and 20C rates. Moreover, the electrode possesses good cycle stability. A specific capacity of 100 mAh g−1at 1C after 300 cycles of charge–discharge at room temperature is reached, which represents 95% of capacity retention. The significantly improved electrochemical performances of the LiMn0.5Fe0.5PO4/C cathode are attributed to the uniformly distributed particles and the enhancement of conductivity that is originated from the surface coating of carbon on primary particles.
