The invention belongs to the technical field of battery materials, and particularly relates to a coated modified
nickel cobalt lithium aluminate positive
electrode material as well as a preparation method and application thereof. The
lithium nickel cobalt aluminate positive
electrode material comprises an inner core and a
coating layer coated on the inner core, a is greater than or equal to 1.01 and less than or equal to 1.05, x is greater than or equal to 0.75 and less than or equal to 0.90, y is greater than or equal to 0.05 and less than or equal to 0.20, z is greater than or equal to 0.01 and less than or equal to 0.05, and p is greater than or equal to 0 and less than or equal to 0.05; l comprises one of Mg, Zr, Mo, Ti and Zn; and the tap density of the coated and modified
nickel cobalt lithium aluminate positive
electrode material is 2.7-3.2 g / cm < 3 >. The coated modified nickel cobalt
lithium aluminate positive
electrode material provided by the invention has relatively good
electronic conductivity and rate capability, and can inhibit lattice collapse caused by
phase change under
high voltage, reduce intergranular gaps, enhance
thermal stability of the material, inhibit capacity
fading caused by structure looseness in
charge and discharge processes, and prolong the cycle life of a battery.
