Abstract
A life model is developed for a lithium ion cell with a spinel-based cathode. It is assumed in the proposed model that the Mn(III) disproportionation reaction causes the degradation of the spinel cathode. The Mn(III) disproportionation reaction leads to the Mn(II) dissolving into the electrolyte and the formation of an inactive material layer which causes a resistance increase in the cathode. The proposed model is used to investigate the effects of ambient temperature and voltage range of cycling on the loss of the cell capacity and the changes in the volume fraction of the cathode active material, the radius of the cathode particle and the resistance of the cathode. © 2012 Elsevier B.V.
