LiMn₃O₄ is a lithium-manganese oxide ceramic compound with a spinel crystal structure, widely studied as a cathode material for rechargeable lithium-ion batteries. This material is valued in electrochemical energy storage for its combination of relatively high theoretical capacity, low cost, and use of abundant elements, though it faces challenges with cycling stability and voltage fade that researchers continue to address. Its selection in battery applications reflects the ongoing engineering trade-off between performance, material cost, and safety compared to layered oxide cathodes like LiCoO₂.
