Problems solved by technology

At present, three commonly used single-component layered oxide cathode materials have their own advantages and disadvantages: LiCoO 2 The electrochemical stability of LiNiO is good, and the cycle performance is excellent, but the actual capacity can only reach half of the theoretical capacity, and the price is high; LiNiO 2 The specific capacity is the highest, but the synthesis is difficult, and there are great safety hazards; LiMnO 2 Good thermal stability and cheap price, but the obvious phase transition during charge and discharge leads to poor cycle stability
[0003] The preparation process of lithium-rich materials reported so far is mostly based on coprecipitation method. This method needs to go through multiple steps such as coprecipitation and washing in the process of preparing precursors. The solvent consumption is relatively large, and the precursors produced Poor repeatability, the ratio of transition metal salts in the product is difficult to strictly control

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a lithium-rich cathode material for a lithium-ion battery and a preparation method thereof, belonging to the technical field of lithium-ion batteries. Background technique [0002] With the widespread application of lithium-ion batteries in portable electronic products, electric vehicles and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles, lithium-ion battery electrode materials, including cathode materials (such as LiCoO 2 , LiMn 2 o 4 and LiFePO 4 etc.) and anode materials (such as C, Sn and Si, etc.), have received extensive attention and in-depth research. Compared with negative electrode materials, the research on positive electrode materials is relatively lagging behind. Therefore, the development of cathode materials with excellent performance and low price has become the key to improving the performance of lithium-ion batteries. Among all kinds of cathode materials, layered LiMO 2 (M=Co, Ni, Mn, etc.) materials can realize Li +...
