A new treatment of LiV₃O_8 has been proposed for improving its electrochemical behavior as a cathode material for secondary lithium batteries. Lithium trivanadate, LiV₃O_8, can be prepared in a finely dispersed form by dehydration of aqueous lithium trivanadate gels. The ultrasonic treated LiV₃O_8 can improve not only the specific capacity, but also the electrical conductivity.
