The discharge capacities of the LiNi0.85CoxMn0.15−xO2 cathodes are similar at around 206 mAh g−1 at room temperature and 213.8 mAh g−1 at 55 °C between 2.7 and 4.3 V at a 0.2C rate, while the cyclability, thermal stability, and rate capability of all samples differ according to the Mn and Co ratio. The LiNi0.85Co0.05Mn0.10O2 cathode shows the most promising electrochemical properties under different conditions among the various cathodes evaluated; it displays a high rate capacity (approximately 163 mAh g−1 at 5C rate) at 25 °C and good thermal stability (main exothermic temperature of 233.7 °C and relatively low heat evolution of 857.3 J g−1).
