Abstract
The sol gel reaction of NH4VO3 and polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) template followed by hydrothermal treatment formed (NH4)xV2O5-δ.nH2O rods. TGA, SEM, XRD and FTIR characterized this compound. Heating (NH 4)xV2O5-δ.nH2O in oxygen and nitrogen at 250°C and 300°C respectively resulted in the formation of vanadium oxides nanofibers of V3O7 and V 2O5. Performance of these compounds as cathode in rechargeable lithium battery was investigated in a LiPF6/mixed carbonate electrolyte. The materials show good cycling with capacity greater than 130mAh/g, which translates to the insertion of 0.5 moles of Li+ per vanadium of the active material.
