Abstract: A solid-state method for recycling spent and/or scrap cathode material includes heating a cathode material comprising lithium nickel manganese cobalt oxide in an oxygen-containing atmosphere at a temperature T1 for an effective period of time t1 to convert the cathode material to a solid precursor, combining the solid precursor with a lithium compound, and heating the solid precursor and the lithium compound in an oxygen-containing atmosphere at a temperature T2 for an effective period of time t2 to form a product comprising monocrystalline lithium nickel manganese cobalt oxide having a formula LiNixMnyMzCo1-x-y-zO2, where M represents one or more dopant metals, x?0.33, 0.01?y<0.33, 0?z?0.05, and x+y+?z 1.0.

Abstract: Methods for synthesizing single crystalline Ni-rich cathode materials are disclosed. The Ni-rich cathode material may have a formula LiNixMnyMzCol1-x-y-zO2, where M represents one or more dopant metals, x?0.6, 0.01?y<0.2, 0?z?0.05, and x+y+z?1.0. The methods are cost-effective, and include methods for solid-state, molten-salt, and flash-sintering syntheses.
