Synthesis of electrode material based on Li₂MnSiO₄/С using widely used, environmentally safe and inexpensive Li, Si and Mn-containing precursors was considered. Mechanochemical activation was used for improving the flow of thesolid-state synthetic process and providing the necessary reactivity to obtain the target product with a high content of the main lithium-accumulating compound.Structural and morphological features of the composite were investigated by X-ray diffraction, laser diffraction granulometry.

Various strategies for the synthesis of promising electrode materials for lithium-ion battery (LIB) based on iron(II)-lithium orthosilicate (Li₂FeSiO₄) using widely distributed, environmentally friendly and inexpensive starting materials are considered. The materials obtained are multicomponent electroactive composites that include, in addition to the main lithium accumulating component, also auxiliary structure-forming and electrically conductive components based on the products of the pyrolytic decomposition of organic compounds.
