(NCM622) is investigated by cosintering at temperatures between 550 and 650 °C. The characterization of the composites and the reaction layer is performed by optical dilatometry, X-ray diffractometry, field emission scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry, as well as scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM). Even at low sintering temperatures, elemental diffusion occurs between the two phases, which leads to the formation of secondary phases and decomposition reactions of the active material and the solid electrolyte. As a result, the densification of the composite is prevented and ion-conducting paths between individual particles cannot be formed. Based on the experimental results, a mechanism of the reactions in cosintered LATP and NCM622 oxide composite cathodes is suggested.
