Abstract:LiFePO4 has become the most ideal cathode material in the field of power battery due to its excellent thermal stability, good cycle life, electrochemical stability, and environmental friendly characters. However, the industrial application of a material requires amplification experiment, which could easily introduce non-active impurity elements into the material, In that case not only the specific capacity and energy density of the material would decrease, but also the battery cycle life and safety would be damaged. This article mainly describes the generation and the influence mechanism of phase doped impurity particles, dissolved impurity phase and generated magnetic impurities towards the material and cell’s performance.
