High-capacity cathode additive for advanced lithium-ion and lithium-iron phosphate battery research
The Cell Lab Lithium-Rich Lithium Iron Oxide (Li₅FeO₄) is a next-generation cathode additive developed for experimental and high-capacity energy storage systems. Leveraging a dual anionic and cationic redox mechanism, it delivers exceptional theoretical capacity (867 mAh/g) with minimal oxygen loss and enhanced structural stability. Compatible with both LFP and layered oxide systems, Li₅FeO₄ enables the design of high-energy, long-cycle battery materials for cutting-edge R&D applications.
High Theoretical Capacity: Offers up to 867 mAh/g through a dual redox reaction mechanism.
Enhanced Stability: Maintains oxygen lattice integrity, reducing degradation at high voltage.
Material Compatibility: Integrates seamlessly into LFP and ternary cathode formulations.
Fine Particle Size: D₅₀ ≈ 5–15 µm ensures excellent dispersibility and reactivity.
Research-Grade Purity: Specially prepared for laboratory and pilot-scale cathode material studies.

Yes. Li₅FeO₄ is suitable for integration into layered oxide systems such as NCM or NCA.
Q3: What precautions should be taken when handling this powder?
Store in a dry, inert atmosphere and avoid moisture exposure to maintain chemical stability.
Q4: Is this product intended for commercial battery production?
No. It is supplied exclusively for laboratory research and experimental development.
Q5: How should the material be stored?
Keep sealed under argon or nitrogen and store below 25 °C to preserve purity and reactivity.
