Effect of the electrode potential on the surface composition and crystal structure of LiMn2O4 in aqueous solutions

Cubic spinel LiMn2O4 has been studied for the reversible extraction of Li+ from natural brine after the application of suitable electrode potentials. In this work we report on the insertion/extraction of Li+ from natural brine of Olaroz salt flat (Jujuy, Argentina) and aqueous LiCl solutions into/fr...
