The invention discloses 
lithium manganese oxide spinel of 
anode materials of 
lithium ion batteries. The specific surface area of the 
lithium manganese oxide spinel ranges from 0.2m<2> / g to 0.6m<2> / g, the content of K ions in the 
lithium manganese oxide spinel is lower than 800ppm, the content of other impurities in the 
lithium manganese oxide spinel is lower than 200ppm, the compaction density of the 
lithium manganese oxide spinel is higher than 3.35g / cm<3>, the initial 
discharge capacity of a 0.1C 
button battery is higher than 115mAh / g, and the 100-cycle capacity 
fading is lower than 8%. The method includes proportioning a lithium source, a 
manganese source and 
doping metal additives, and presintering the manganese source at the temperature 
ranging from 500 DEG C to 1000 DEG C; mixing the presintered manganese source, the lithium source and the 
doping metal additives to obtain a mixed 
raw material; performing multi-section 
sintering for the mixed 
raw material to obtain a sintered sample, washing the sintered sample by water, and centrifugally 
spinning and 
drying the sintered sample; and screening and grading to obtain a lithium 
manganese oxide product. The lithium 
manganese oxide product is regular in granule morphology, high in compaction density, low in 
impurity content and good in both processability and electric performance.
