Compositions of cationic elements in pristine Li(Ni0.80Co0.15Mn0.05)O2 (NCM) and NCM subjected to 100 and 300 cycles as measured by ICP-AES (the atomic concentration is normalised to obtain a total TM fraction of 1).
| Specimen | Atomic concentration (weight %) | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Li | Ni | Co | Mn | |
| NCM-pristine | 1.04 (6.77) | 0.80 (44.31) | 0.15 (8.24) | 0.05 (2.46) |
| NCM-100 cycles | 0.94 (6.16) | 0.80 (44.36) | 0.15 (8.23) | 0.05 (2.46) |
| NCM-300 cycles | 0.83 (5.44) | 0.80 (44.58) | 0.15 (8.29) | 0.05 (2.48) |
