Abstract

The invention relates to a method for non-destructively evaluating a lithium-cobalt molar ratio in a lithium battery electrode, which comprises the following steps of: defining an active material of the lithium battery electrode as lithium cobalt oxide M1-n, selecting a lithium cobalt oxide standard sample M0 with a known lithium-cobalt molar ratio N0,wherein the molar ratio of lithium to cobalt in the lithium battery electrode is N1-n; manufacturing a reference electrode by adopting the same process as the lithium battery electrode, assembling the reference electrode and the lithium battery electrode into a battery according to the same method, then carrying out specific capacity testing under the same condition, wherein the measured specific capacities of the battery are Q0 and Q1-n respectively, and the lithium-cobalt molar ratio in the lithium battery electrode is N1-n = N0 * (Q1-n / Q0). The sample to be tested does not need to decompose the battery, the requirement for the sample amount is avoided, online nondestructive testing can be achieved, and the method is particularly suitable for evaluating the lithium-cobalt molar ratio in the cycle performance testing process. Meanwhile, man-made interference is small, and the operation is convenient. In addition, used reagents are remarkably reduced, and the environmental pollution and pollution emission of a test room are reduced.
