Patent ID: 10892471

Abstract:
A method of preparing a positive electrode active material precursor for a lithium secondary battery by using a batch-type reactor, which includes the steps of 1) forming positive electrode active material precursor particles while continuously adding a transition metal-containing solution including a transition metal cation, an aqueous alkaline solution, and an ammonium ion-containing solution to a batch-type reactor, 2) sedimenting the positive electrode active material precursor particles formed; 3) discharging a supernatant formed after the sedimentation of the positive electrode active material precursor particles to an outside; 4) adjusting a pH to 10 to 12 by adding the ammonium ion-containing solution; and 5) growing the positive electrode active material precursor particles while continuously again adding the transition metal-containing solution to the batch-type reactor, and a method of preparing a positive electrode active material using the same.
