Role of these solvents on the Li-intercalation behaviour of synthesized δ-VOPO4 has been studied. The solvents affected significantly the size of the crystallites and the level of impurities in the synthesized material. δ-VOPO4 synthesized using water as solvent, possessed a significant Li-intercalation capacity ca., 124 mAh.g�1 at 3.7 V corresponding to 75 of its theoretical capacity. Among the organic solvents used, sample prepared using ethanol exhibited the highest Li intercalation capacity. Small amount of β-phase was observed in the synthesized δ-VOPO4 (with phosphate/vanadium ratio of 2) using ethanol and Li-intercalation capacity of this phase was about 137 mAh.g1, corresponding to 85 of the theoretical capacity. The capacity was found to be almost stable at 110 mAh.g�1 over 100 cycles. © 2010 Taylor and Francis Group, LLC. date: 2010 official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-85024211632&doi=10.1080%2f0371750X.2010.11090841&partnerID=40&md5=025dd370ca509a8df70472ed1483277a id_number: 10.1080/0371750X.2010.11090841 full_text_status: none publication: Transactions of the Indian Ceramic Society volume: 69 number: 4 pagerange: 235-239 refereed: TRUE issn: 0371750X citation: Azmi, B.M. and Shariff, A.M. and Maitra, S. and Ishihara, T.
