Lithium Cobalt

Product details

High Quality CAS 12190-79-3 Cobalt Oxide for Lithium Battery Cathode Material

Lithium cobalt oxide, also known as lithium cobalt oxide, chemical formula LiCoO2, is an inorganic compound that is generally used as a positive electrode material for lithium-ion batteries. The structure of LiCoO2 has been studied by X-ray diffraction, electron microscopy and neutron powder diffraction. The lithium atomic layer lies between plates of regular octahedrons formed by cobalt and oxygen atoms (shown below). This structure is in agreement with the structure predicted by the theory. Lithium cobalt oxide is toxic and should be handled safely.
