Abstract

A new electrolytic method was developed to prepare LiCo_(x)Ni_(1-x)O_2 as a cathode material of lithium-ion battery. Contrary to the traditional method, electrolytic method is a potential method with simple process to industrialization and no pollution. Metal cobalt and nickel were electrolysed in parallel to prepare the precursor of Co_( x )Ni_(1- x )(OH)_2.Different compositional precursors could be conveniently prepared by changing electrolytic current. The LiCo_(0.3)Ni_(0.7)O_2 cathode prepared by this method was found favorable charge-discharge and cycle properties. For the LiCo_(0.3)Ni_(0.7)O_(2 )cathode material, the discharge capacities in the 1st and 50th cycles were 163 mAh/g and 140 mAh/g with charge retention of 86%.
