The invention belongs to the field of positive electrode materials for lithium ion batteries, and particularly relates to a method for preparing a graphene composite ternary material by a monovalent alcohol solvothermal method. Method for preparing graphene composite ternary material by monovalent alcohol solvothermal method, the ternary material is LiNixCoyMnzO2, x+y+z=1, 0.2≤x≤0.6, 0.1≤y≤0.4, 0.2≤z≤0.5; graphite The general chemical formula of the ene composite ternary material is Graphene / LiNixCoyMnzO2. The advantages of the present invention are: 1) Since the ternary material LiNixCoyMnzO2 is sensitive to water, it is a good choice for a monohydric alcohol to replace water as a solvent, because the temperature is less than 220℃ , when the pressure is not more than 3 MPa, the monohydric alcohol is easy to form a subcritical state, which is non-flammable, cheap, and weak in toxicity; 2) The graphene composite ternary cathode material prepared by the present invention has excellent electrochemical performance, and its rate performance is better than traditional 3) The preparation process is relatively simple, the cost is low, and it is suitable for large-scale industrial production.
