Abstract: A lithium cobalt oxide powder for use as an active positive electrode material in lithium-ion batteries, the lithium cobalt oxide powder having a Ti content of between 0.1 and 0.25 mol %, and the lithium cobalt oxide powder having a density PD in g/cm3 dependent on the powder particle size expressed by the D50 value in ?m, wherein PD?3.63+[0.0153*(D50?17)].

Abstract: The disclosure relates to positive electrode material used for Li-ion batteries, a precursor and process used for preparing such materials, and Li-ion battery using such material in its positive electrode. The disclosure describes a higher density LiCoO2 positive electrode material for lithium secondary batteries, with a specific surface area (BET) below 0.2 m2/g, and a volumetric median particle size (d50) of more than 15 ?m. This product has improved specific capacity and rate-capability. Other embodiments of the disclosure are an aggregated Co(OH)2, which is used as a precursor, the electrode mix and the battery manufactured using above-mentioned LiCoO2.
