Abstract
To provide a process for producing a cathode active material for a lithium ion secondary battery which can improve the initial charge and discharge efficiency (initial efficiency) and the cycle retention of a lithium ion secondary battery. A process for producing a cathode active material for a lithium ion secondary battery, which comprises a step (I) of bringing a lithium-containing composite oxide (I) containing Li element and a transition metal element into contact with a washing liquid and then separating it from the washing liquid to obtain a lithium-containing composite oxide (II), a step (II) of bringing the lithium-containing composite oxide (II) into contact with a composition (1) consisting of an aqueous solution containing an anion (A) preferably containing F and a composition (2) consisting of an aqueous solution containing a cation (M) preferably containing Al or Zr, and a step (III) of heating the lithium-containing composite oxide (II) after the step (II), in this order.
