Influence of Nanoparticle Morphology on Ion Release and Biological Impact of Nickel Manganese Cobalt Oxide (NMC) Complex Oxide Nanomaterials.

ABSTRACT: Lithium intercalation compounds such as nickel manganese cobalt oxides, (Li_xNi_yMn_zCo_1-y-zO₂, 0 < x,y,z <1, or NMCs) are complex transition metal oxides of increasing interest in nanoscale form for applications in electrochemical energy storage and as tunable catalysts. These materials exhibit sheet-like structures that expose low-energy basal planes and higher-energy edge planes in relative amounts that vary with the nanoparticle morphology. Yet there is little understanding of how differences in nanoparticle morphology and exposed crystal planes affects the biological impact of this class of technologically relevant nanomaterials. We investigated how changing nanoparticle morphology from two-dimensional (001)-oriented nanosheets to th
