The invention belongs to the field of
lithium ion batteries, provides a
lithium ion battery positive
electrode material with
ultrahigh energy density, and aims to overcome the defects that
nickel cobalt lithium manganite is poor in electrochemical performance and low in specific capacity and
energy density. A molecular expression of the
lithium ion battery positive
electrode material is Li(Ni0.6Co0.2Mn0.2)1-xAlxO2-yFy, wherein x is greater than 0, and y is smaller than or equal to 0.05; a small amount of
aluminum element replaces part of
nickel element, and a
fluorine element partially replaces an
oxygen element, so that an internal structure of the material is stabilized, and
structure collapse under a high-proportion lithium-removing state is inhibited; by co-
doping aluminum with
fluorine,
specific discharge capacity and comprehensive electrochemical properties of the material are greatly improved;
energy density is remarkably improved; besides, according to the
lithium ion battery positive
electrode material disclosed by the invention, a precursor material of which
nickel elements are gradually distributed is prepared by adopting a gradient
coprecipitation method; the concentration of the precursor material is gradually increased from inside to outside, so that the
specific discharge capacity of the positive
electrode material is favorably improved; a prepared product is high in purity, high in chemical uniformity and high in
crystallization quality; products are small in particles, uniform in distribution, excellent in electrochemical performance and lower in manufacturing cost.
