Abstract

The reasons for capacity fading of LiCoPO ₄ cathodes in 1 M LiPF ₆ EC/DMC 1:1 electrolyte solutions were investigated using ¹⁹F, ³¹P NMR and XPS spectroscopy. The origin of the poor performance of LiCoPO ₄ cathodes in LiPF ₆ containing electrolyte solutions is a nucleophilic attack of F ^- anions in solution on the P atoms, resulting in the breaking of the P - O bonds of the phosphate anions and the formation of soluble LiPO ₂F ₂ moieties.
