What are the advantages of lithium nickel cobalt manganese oxide batteries?

Lithium nickel cobalt manganese oxide is a key ternary cathode material for lithium-ion batteries, with the chemical formula LiNixCoyMn1-x-yO2. Lithium nickel cobalt manganese oxide replaces more than two-thirds of cobalt in lithium cobalt oxide with relatively inexpensive nickel and manganese. The cost advantage is very obvious. Compared with other lithium-ion battery cathode materials, lithium manganate and lithium iron phosphate, Lithium nickel cobalt manganate materials and lithium cobalt oxide are very close in terms of electrochemical performance and processing performance, making nickel cobalt manganese oxide materials become a new battery material and gradually replace lithium cobalt oxide, becoming the darling of a new generation of lithium-ion battery materials.

Method for preparing lithium nickel cobalt manganate

The preparation method of lithium nickel cobalt manganate mainly adopts high temperature solid phase synthesis method and co-precipitation method. Mainly use manganese compounds, nickel compounds and lithium cobalt oxide and lithium hydroxide as raw materials. Through hydrothermal reaction, a precursor with good combination of lithium, manganese, cobalt and nickel is obtained, and then the precursor is supplemented with a lithium source and ground to obtain the precursor The body is calcined to obtain lithium nickel cobalt manganese oxide. With the increasing tension of global resources and the pressure of the environment, battery materials must follow the route of fixed-line circulation.
