Problems solved by technology

However, conventionally developed NCM-based lithium composite transition metal oxides in the form of secondary particles aggregated from primary particles have a large specific surface area, low particle strength, a large amount of gas generated during battery operation due to a high content of lithium by-products, and lower stability limit
In other words, conventionally developed NCM-like lithium composite transition metal oxides are limited in their use for high-voltage batteries due to the inability to ensure their stability

preparation example Construction

[0020] The method for preparing a positive electrode active material for a secondary battery of the present invention comprises the steps of: providing a positive electrode active material precursor comprising a core and a shell, wherein the core contains nickel (Ni), cobalt (Co) and manganese (Mn ), and the shell portion contains cobalt (Co) and surrounds the core portion; formed by mixing the cathode active material precursor with a lithium raw material to obtain a mixture and firing the mixture at a temperature of 970° C. or higher A lithium composite transition metal oxide in the form of single particles.

[0021] The method of preparing the cathode active material will be described step by step in detail.

[0022] First, there is provided a positive electrode active material precursor including a core part and a shell part, wherein the core part contains nickel (Ni), cobalt (Co) and manganese (Mn), and the shell part contains cobalt (Co) and surrounds the Describe the nu...

Embodiment 1

[0087] In a batch 40L reactor set at 50°C, NiSO 4 、CoSO 4 and MnSO 4 Nickel:cobalt:manganese was mixed in water in such an amount that the molar ratio of nickel:cobalt:manganese was 57:20:23 to prepare a first transition metal solution having a concentration of 2.4M.

[0088] Add 13 liters of deionized water to the co-precipitation reactor (capacity: 40 L), and purge nitrogen gas into the reactor at a rate of 25 liters / min to remove dissolved oxygen in the water and create a non-oxidizing atmosphere in the reactor. atmosphere. Thereafter, 83 g of an aqueous NaOH solution having a concentration of 25% was added thereto, and the mixture was stirred at a temperature of 50° C. and a stirring speed of 700 rpm so as to maintain a pH of 11.5.

[0089] Afterwards, the first transition metal solution was input separately at a rate of 1.9 L / hour, and NaOH aqueous solution, NH 4 An aqueous OH solution was added thereto, and at the same time, a co-precipitation reaction was performed ...

Embodiment 2

[0094] The lithium composite transition metal oxide prepared in the same manner as in Example 1 was mixed with Al 2 o 3 mix. The mixed mixture was heat-treated at 500° C. for 3 hours in an air atmosphere to prepare a positive electrode active material formed with an Al-coated portion.
