Scalable Advanced Li(Ni_0.8Co_0.1Mn_0.1)O₂ Cathode Materials from a Slug Flow Continuous Process.

ABSTRACT: Li[Ni_0.8Co_0.1Mn_0.1]O₂ (LNCMO811) is the most studied cathode material for next-generation lithium-ion batteries with high energy density. However, available synthesis methods are time-consuming and complex, restricting their mass production. A scalable manufacturing process for producing NCM811 hydroxide precursors is vital for commercialization of the material. In this work, a three-phase slug flow reactor, which has been demonstrated for its ease of scale-up, better synthetic control, and excellent uniform mixing, was developed to control the initial stage of the coprecipitation of NCM811 hydroxide. Furthermore, an equilibrium model was established to predict the yield and composition of the final product. The homogeneous slurry from the slug f
