Abstract

In this study, iron oxyborate (Fe₃BO₆) was first synthesized through solution combustion method as a potential anode material for lithium-ion batteries. Urea, glycine, citric acid, carbohydrazide, hexamethylene tetramine, and starch were used as fuel sources and the effects of fuels were investigated. The obtained materials were structurally characterized by FT-IR, powder-XRD and solid UV-Vis. The pure crystalline Fe₃BO₆ was synthesized at low temperature and short reaction time using glycine assisted solution combustion method. It was thermally stable up to 945 °C with non-uniform morphology and a highly porous structure. The magnetic properties were also studied and Fe₃BO₆ show antiferromagnetic behavior.
