Abstract: LiV3O8 as a cathode material for lithium ion batteries was synthesized by solution reaction and low temperature calcinations technique with V2O5•nH2O hydro-gels and Li2CO3 as raw materials. The precursor and product were characterized by DTA-TG, XRD measurements. Electrochemical behavior of the LiV3O8 as a cathode material for rechargeable lithium-ion batteries was studied by galvanostatic charge-discharge measurement. The experiment showed that the active material LiV3O8 was of higher charge-discharge capacity and excellent cycling behavior. Lithium-ion chemical diffusion coefficient (DLi＋) of the LiV3O8 electrode was determined by the potentiostatic intermittent titration technique (PITT).DLi＋ values obtained were in the range of 10－8～10－10 cm2•s－1,depending on x-values in Li1＋xV3O8.The activation energy of lithium-ion diffusion (Ea) obtained was in the range of 25～42 kJ•mol－1(x=0.18～2.5).
