Problems solved by technology

In addition, since the aqueous solution is switched in the middle of the crystallization reaction, the productivity decreases in industrial-scale production, and it is difficult to obtain uniformity among particles.
Furthermore, when the Mn / Ni ratio of the secondary particle periphery of the lithium-manganese-nickel composite oxide is high, there is a problem that it may be difficult to obtain high output.
[0017] As mentioned above, there is no report example of reducing the alkalinity of the positive electrode active material and satisfying high output.
In addition, lithium-nickel-cobalt-manganese composite oxides that can sufficiently improve the performance of non-aqueous electrolyte secondary batteries have not yet been developed on an industrial scale at the present stage, and their development is required.

Embodiment 1

[0178] (co-precipitation process)

[0179] In Example 1, first add water to half the amount in the reaction tank, set the temperature in the tank to 40°C while stirring, add 25% aqueous sodium hydroxide solution and 25% ammonia water to it in an appropriate amount, and lower the liquid temperature to 25°C The pH measured as a reference was adjusted to 12.8, and the ammonia concentration in the liquid was adjusted to 10 g / L. Add 2.0 mol / L of nickel sulfate, cobalt sulfate, manganese sulfate, zirconium sulfate (Ni:Co:Mn:Zr=38:32:30:0.5 in molar ratio of metal elements) dissolved in water to it at a certain speed. Crystallization was carried out for 2 minutes and 30 seconds while controlling the pH value at 12.8 (nucleation pH) in an aqueous solution of 25% ammonia water and 25% sodium hydroxide solution.

[0180] After that, in Example 1, nitrogen gas was circulated to lower the oxygen concentration in the reaction tank, and the pH value measured based on the liquid temperature...

Abstract

The invention provides a positive electrode active material for non-aqueous electrolyte secondary batteries which is capable of achieving non-aqueous electrolyte secondary batteries exhibiting excellent battery characteristics; a production method for the material; and a non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery. In the positive electrode active material for non-aqueous electrolyte secondary batteries, secondary particles of lithium nickel cobalt manganese composite oxide particles comprise outer shell parts having a high manganese concentration, and core parts having a low manganese concentration which is lower than that of outer shell parts. Primary particles which form the secondary-particle outer shell parts having a high manganese concentration comprise outer peripheral parts having a low manganese concentration, and internal parts having a high manganese concentration. The ratio of the manganese concentration of the primary-particle internal parts to the manganese concentration of the primary-particle outer peripheral parts is 1.5-2.5.
