Abstract
Spinel-structured LiNi 0.5 Mn 1.5 O 4 (LNMO), which is used as a cathode material for lithium-ion batteries, off ers economic and
eco-friendly advantages, as it operates at a high voltage of 5 V and does not require expensive cobalt. However, challenges
such as low electronic conductivity and volume changes due to phase transitions during charging and discharging at 3 V
or lower persist, resulting in capacity degradation. In this study, LNMO nanofi bers were created using the electrospinning
method to tackle the volume expansion issue and maintain structural integrity of the material. In addition, the electrode was
constructed with carbon nanotubes as a conductive material to improve electronic conductivity. Electrochemical evaluations
showed that LNMO nanofi bers combined with carbon nanotubes exhibited a higher capacity and outstanding cyclability
compared to LNMO powder.
