Abstract
This review explores the structural characteristics of LiFe1-yMnyPO4 (LFMP) (0 < y < 1) and focuses on the redox evolution of Mn and Fe during charge-discharge processes, the kinetics of lithiation reactions, and the impact of lattice defects on performance. These insights are crucial for developing high-performance lithium-ion batteries. LFMP displays a variety of microstructural morphologies, and strategies such as ion doping and carbon coating are pivotal for enhancing its performance. With ongoing technological advancements, the industrialization of LFMP is gaining momentum. It is anticipated that LFMP will achieve commercial application shortly, which is expected to drive the advancement of battery recycling and technology upgrading.
