Rod-like LiFePO₄/C particles with different aspect ratios were synthesized by controlling the reflux reaction time in polyol medium at a low temperature, using an Fe³⁺ salt as the iron source. The precursors and final LiFePO₄/C samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), cyclic voltammetry (CV), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), and galvanostatic charge-discharge test. The results show that the reflux reaction time has a significant effect on the characteristics of the LiFePO₄ precursors and electrochemical performance of the final LiFePO₄/C samples. The morphology of the precursors is transformed from irregular short rod-like particles into regular long rod-like particles, and the aspect ratios of the rods increase with increasing reflux reaction time from 4 to 16 h. At a reflux reaction time of 10 h, the material contains multifarious morphologies, which is beneficial to the electron transmission, and displays an excellent electrochemical performance at low discharge rates, the discharge capacity is 163 mAh·g^-1 at 0.1C rate. Extension of the reflux reaction time to 16 h, the material reveals the biggest aspect ratio, which is conducive to the diffusion of lithium ions, and gives od electrochemical performance at high discharge rates, the discharge capacities are measured to be 135, 125, 118, 110, and 98 mAh·g^-1 at 1C, 3C, 5C, 10C, and 20C rates, respectively, revealing od cycling performance and little capacity fading.
