Lithium Iron Phosphate (LiFePO4) microstructures have been synthesized using the sol-gel process. One-dimensional (1D) LiFePO4 microstructures were fabricated using tissue paper as a template under different temperatures to form pure phase microstructures. XRD analysis confirmed the single phase nature of orthorhombic olivine-structured LiFePO4 with Pnma space group. SEM analysis authenticated the formation of 1D LiFePO4 microstructures along with some clusters of particles. LiFePO4-multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) freestanding sheets were prepared using a tape-casting process. Further, the electrochemical properties of LiFePO4-MWCNT freestanding sheet were analyzed through electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, cyclic voltammetry, and galvanostatic charge-discharge analysis.
