This study reports on the synthesis, structural and electrochemical characterizations of cobalt doped iron fluoride hydrate as a high-performance cathode material for LIBs. A simple non-aqueous precipitation method is used to synthesize cobalt doped iron fluoride (Fe0.9Co0.1F3 center dot 0.5H(2)O) while its structural and electrochemical properties are also evaluated. The thermogravimetric analysis reveals that the structure of the as-prepared material remains stable up to 243 degrees C. The structure was then found to collapse beyond this temperature due to the removal of water contents from the crystal structure. The material delivers a high discharge capacity of 227 mAh g (1) at 0.1C in the potential range of 1.8-4.5 V versus Li/Li+. The electrode retains a high reversible capacity of 150 mAh g 1 at a rate of 0.1C after 200 cycles, indicating high reversibility and stability of the material. The electrode also shows a superior rate capability of up to 10C, showing its potential use as a cathode material for LIBs. (C) 2017 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
