Problems solved by technology

[0004] Acid treatment can regulate the first coulombic efficiency by removing residual lithium on the surface of layered cathode materials, etc., but the use of inorganic strong acid treatment requires high equipment requirements, large pollution and is easy to cause serious corrosion to materials (Liu et al., EnergyStorage Materials, 2019, 16, 220-227)
[0005] Carbide coating can improve the rate performance and cycle stability of layered cathode materials by improving the electrical conductivity, but it cannot remove the residual lithium on the surface of the material and reduce the gas evolution on the surface, and the first Coulombic efficiency is still low.
[0006] Most of the acid treatment for layered positive electrode materials uses inorganic strong acids. The acid treatment process is violent, difficult to control and requires high equipment. The production process will deteriorate the production workshop environment, and the waste liquid is difficult to handle and easy to cause pollution. At the same time, it will be on the surface of the material even Different degrees of corrosion are caused inside, which is not conducive to the comprehensive performance of materials
There are still great deficiencies in the effect of surface modification of layered cathode materials by carbide coating and the improvement of their comprehensive performance, such as the inability to remove residual lithium on the surface of the material and carry out H + / Li + Exchange reaction, and the performance improvement of the first Coulombic efficiency of the material is not obvious

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a lithium battery, in particular to a layered positive electrode material improved by using an organic acid and a preparation method. Background technique [0002] Since the 1990s, lithium-ion batteries have gone from their early use in portable electronics to their widespread use in applications such as power grids and transportation. In order to meet the needs of the ever-expanding application market, it is urgent to improve the electrochemical performance of lithium-ion batteries and reduce their production costs from different levels, among which the development of high-performance lithium-ion battery cathode materials is the key (Ceder et al., Nature, 2018, 556, 185-190). [0003] At present, layered cathode materials are the most widely used in commercialized lithium-ion battery cathode materials. For example, lithium cobalt oxide dominates the electronics industry, high-nickel ternary materials are in the ascendant in t...
