Problems solved by technology

At present, lithium cobalt oxide is the most widely used positive electrode material for lithium ion batteries. When preparing lithium cobalt oxide, cobalt tetroxide used is mainly prepared by calcining cobalt oxalate and cobalt carbonate, but because the synthesized cobalt oxalate and cobalt carbonate are irregular Particles, after firing, the obtained tricobalt tetroxide is also amorphous, which will reduce the tap density and increase the volume of the battery when synthesizing lithium cobalt oxide, and calcining reduces the chemical activity of tricobalt tetroxide, which ultimately affects the electrochemical properties of lithium cobalt oxide
