Abstract

The invention provides a method for modifying a lithium cobalt oxide material. The method comprises the steps of adding Li3xLa(2 / 3-x)TiO3 sol obtained by EDTA-CA complexing into LiCoO2, uniformly stirring, and calcining to change the original LiCoO2 layered structure into a sandwich structure LiCoO2-Li3xLa(2 / 3-x)TiO3. The technology of the method is simple, and the obtained LiCoO2-Li3xLa(2 / 3-x)TiO3 has a unique structure; furthermore, by the LiCoO2-Li3xLa2 / 3-xTiO3 particles embedded into the LiCoO2 layer, the LiCoO2 layer is stable, and the problem that the LiCoO2 layered structure is collapsed in a battery circulating process can be prevented; meanwhile, due to the LiCoO2-Li3xLa(2 / 3-x)TiO3 particles, Co<3+> cannot be in direct contact with electrolyte, and dissolving amount of Co<3+> is reduced; the compounded LiCoO2-Li3xLa(2 / 3-x)TiO3 material is excellent in circulating and multiplying performance, so that the safety stability of a battery is improved; the LiCoO2-Li3xLa(2 / 3-x)TiO3 material is an extremely good lithium ion battery positive electrode material, and the use prospect of commercial LiCoO2 is greatly enhanced.
