Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A method of preparing a positive electrode active material includes mixing a positive electrode active material precursor with a lithium raw material and performing a primary heat treatment, and performing a secondary heat treatment at a temperature lower than that of the primary heat treatment to prepare a positive electrode active material. The primary heat treatment and the secondary heat treatment are respectively performed in an oxygen atmosphere. The secondary heat treatment is performed in the oxygen atmosphere with an oxygen concentration of 50% or more.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

1 . A method of preparing a positive electrode active material, the method comprising: mixing a positive electrode active material precursor with a lithium raw material and performing a primary heat treatment; and performing a secondary heat treatment at a temperature lower than that of the primary heat treatment to prepare a positive electrode active material, wherein the primary heat treatment and the secondary heat treatment are respectively performed in an oxygen atmosphere, and wherein the secondary heat treatment is performed in the oxygen atmosphere with an oxygen concentration of 50% or more. 2 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the primary heat treatment is performed at a temperature of 800° C. or more. 3 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the primary heat treatment is performed in the oxygen atmosphere with an oxygen concentration of 50% or more. 4 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the primary heat treatment is performed for 10 hours to 20 hours. 5 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the secondary heat treatment is performed at a temperature of greater than 600° C. to less than 800° C. 6 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the secondary heat treatment is performed for 2 hours to 12 hours.
