Abstract
The regeneration and upgrading of spent LiFePO4 cathodes (S-LFP) were achieved via a one-step hydrothermal treatment. The reducing effect of phytic acid could restore the degraded structure associated with an aqueous Li source. Meanwhile, Li ions are easily chelated by phytic acid groups, and a Li3PO4 coating layer could be formed to reconstruct the surface of the LFP. The regenerated LFP exhibits faster reaction kinetics, larger high-rate charge/discharge capacity, and better cycling performance than commercial LFPs, suggesting that our proposed strategy is a promising technology for the recovery of spent cathode materials.
