The invention relates to the technical field of
lithium ion batteries, in particular to a
nickel positive
electrode material, a preparation method and application. The preparation method of the
nickel positive
electrode material comprises the following steps: mixing soluble
nickel salt,
cobalt salt and
manganese salt according to a target stoichiometric ratio to obtain a mixed
salt solution, and adding a
niobium source or a
tungsten source into the mixed
salt solution to obtain a first solution; meanwhile, preparing a
sodium hydroxide solution with a certain concentration as a precipitator and
ammonia water with a certain concentration as a complexing agent; under the conditions of continuous stirring and controllable temperature, the first solution, a
sodium hydroxide solution and
ammonia water are added into a reactor in a parallel flow mode,
metal ions are co-precipitated by adjusting the pH value, the
reaction temperature, the
ammonium radical concentration and the rotating speed, and a nickel-
cobalt-
manganese-
niobium hydroxide precursor or a nickel-
cobalt-
manganese-
tungsten hydroxide precursor is obtained after aging, filtering, washing and
drying; and uniformly mixing the nickel-cobalt-manganese-
niobium hydroxide precursor or the nickel-cobalt-manganese-
tungsten hydroxide precursor with a
lithium source, and
roasting to obtain the nickel positive
electrode material. And the performance of the
lithium ion battery can be improved.
