In the field of lithium-ion battery cathode materials, lithium-rich layered oxide materials have garnered significant attention due to their exceptional discharge specific capacity and high operating voltage. However, their limitations in terms of cycling stability and rate capability remain major impediments to their wider application. In this study, an innovative approach was employed by simultaneously utilizing the acidic and oxidative properties of phosphomolybdic acid to generate a spinel structure and in-situ coating of a conductive polymer (polypyrrole) on the surface of lithium-rich layered oxide materials. This strategy aimed to mitigate structural degradation during charge-discharge cycles, enhance the ionic/electronic conductivity, and suppress side reactions. Experimental results demonstrated that after 200 cycles at a current density of 1 C, the modified sample exhibited a discharge specific capacity of 193.4 mAh/g, with an improved capacity retention rate of 83.3% and a minimal voltage decay of only 0.27 V. These findings provide compelling support for the development and application of next-generation high-performance lithium-ion batteries.
