- High temperature batteries for oil and gas exploration have traditionally been non-rechargeable lithium-based batteries. However, the toxic and corrosive nature of these causes environmental and health issues during disposal. V6O13 is an attractive cathode alternative because of its crystal structure, high electrochemical capacity and electronic conductivity. Nevertheless, commercial samples often suffer from impurities meaning its full capacity cannot be achieved. This work develops a simple and large-scale method to fabricate purer V6O13. The product provides a 10% increase in the specific capacity compared to commercial samples, opening up its use for commercial high temperature battery operations.
