Problems solved by technology

However, due to the large amount of lithium delithiation / intercalation of lithium cobaltate, a certain volume change will occur during the cycle.
After a long cycle, the interface between some cladding materials and lithium cobalt oxide will be separated, thus causing the protective effect of the cladding layer to fail.
[0006] The existing technology is mainly to coat after the synthesis of lithium cobalt oxide. Although the electrochemical performance of lithium cobalt oxide is significantly improved by the coating material, the bonding force between the coating material and lithium cobalt oxide is poor, and it is not easy to Uniform coating or falling off during the stirring process of the lithium cobalt oxide slurry, or a certain volume change due to the large amount of lithium delithiation / intercalation of lithium cobalt oxide during the charge-discharge cycle
After a long cycle, the interface between some cladding materials and lithium cobalt oxide will be separated, thus causing the protective effect of the cladding layer to fail.
These conditions severely limit the coating effect
In addition, when multiple elements are required to be coated at the same time, selective coating also occurs, that is, the coating material is unevenly distributed on the surface of lithium cobalt oxide particles
