Lithiumcobaltoxide (LiCoO2, LCO) of hexagonal structure () was first used as cathode material in
capable of reversibly intercalating lithium ions [2]. The commercialization of lithium-ion cells was achieved in the early 1990s by Sony Corporation and in 1992 by a joint venture company (Asahi Kasai and Toshiba) [2][3][4]. Almost 90% of commercial Li-ion batteries consist of a lithiumcobaltoxide
is a widely used method for the creation of nanomaterials [48][49][50][51][52][53][54][55][56][57]. Acetates, carbonates, and nitrate salts of lithium and cobalt are often utilized as starting materials and oxidizers in the combustion synthesis of lithiumcobaltoxide [50][58][59]. Different ammonium
