  • Patent number: 10193132
    Abstract: A method of producing submicrometer- to micrometer-sized spherical particles, the method comprising dissolving a lithium salt and a metal salt in water or alcohol forming a precursor solution, spraying the precursor solution to form fine aerosolized droplets, flowing the aerosolized droplets into a pyro lysis flame producing submicrometer- to micrometer-sized spherical particles. The submicrometer- to micrometer-sized spherical lithium-metal oxide powders produced are cathode materials for Li-ion batteries.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: August 2, 2011
    Date of Patent: January 29, 2019
    Assignee: Washington University
