Abstract

The invention provides a single crystal ternary cathode material having gradient concentration distribution and primary particle oriented growth. The single crystal ternary cathode material having gradient concentration distribution and primary particle oriented growth microstructure does not easily produce stress to destroy the structure during charge and discharge compared to ternary cathode materials having a core-shell structure of a two-phase interface and a non-directional growth structure; the surface Mn content is the same as the bulk Mn content, which effectively alleviates the dissolution of Mn element during the cycle; the structure of primary particle oriented growth can greatly shorten the Li+ migration distance and increase the migration rate of Li+, thereby improving the rate performance and cycle stability of the material; the surface of single crystal particles is smooth, can be in good contact with a conductive agent, and is greatly compact, which is beneficial to increasing the volumetric energy density of the material.
