The invention provides a positive
electrode material, a positive plate and a
lithium ion battery, the positive
electrode material is a ternary layered
oxide and comprises
single crystal particles and polycrystal particles, the
mass ratio of the polycrystal particles to the
single crystal particles satisfies 9: 1-6: 4, the positive
electrode material has a chemical general formula LiNixCoyMzO2, M is Mn or Al, x is more than or equal to 0.80 and less than or equal to 0.95, y is more than 0 and less than 0.25, and z is more than 0 and less than 0.2; the polycrystalline particles are secondary particles formed by
sintering and agglomerating primary
crystal grains at a high temperature, and the particle size of the primary
crystal grains meets the following conditions: the shortest Freight
diameter A is more than or equal to 0.1 mu m and less than or equal to 0.6 mu m; the longest
Feret diameter B is greater than or equal to 0.2 mu m and less than or equal to 1.0 mu m; an
aspect ratio B / A: 1.0 < = B / A < = 3.5; the morphology of the polycrystalline particles meets the relational expression that (B / A) * e ((k * c / a)) is larger than or equal to 30 and smaller than or equal to 100, and c / a is the
lattice constant ratio of the polycrystalline particles; and k is the ratio of I003 to I104. According to the control standard for monitoring the two-dimensional microtopography of the primary
crystal grains and the secondary particles of the polycrystalline particles by using a relational expression that (B / A). E ((k. C / a)) is greater than or equal to 30 and less than or equal to 100, the electrochemical performance of the positive
electrode material can be evaluated more accurately, and the performance
standardization control effect of a terminal battery product is improved.
