The inventive concept discloses a cathode active material containing crystal water and a manganese-based metal oxide.

Cathode active material

The inventive concept discloses a method for preparing a cathode active material containing a lithium manganese oxide exhibiting a reversible phase transition, and exhibiting electrochemical characteristics of the lithium manganese oxide through the reversible phase transition including (A) synthesizing a sodium manganese oxide using a manganese precursor, and (B) reacting the sodium manganese oxide with a lithium precursor to synthesize the lithium manganese oxide, or including (C) directly synthesizing the lithium manganese oxide.

Method for preparing cathode active material

An evaporating device includes: an evaporator, a defrost heater, and an evaporation pan, wherein the evaporation pan is made of aluminum and the inner side of the evaporation pan is coated with a surface treatment to improve the melting of ice in the evaporation pan.
