Abstract
Provided are excellent coated lithium-nickel composite oxide particles which are capable of suppressing the occurrence of impurities produced by absorbing water and carbonic acid gas as a result of the high environmental stability thereof, have strong adhesion properties, do not result in easy coating layer detachment, and also exhibit lithium ion conductivity. The surfaces of the lithium-nickel composite oxide particles are coated with a polymer or copolymer comprising one or more types selected from a group consisting of a modified polyolefin resin, a polyester resin, a polyphenol resin, a polyurethane resin, an epoxy resin, a silane-modified polyether resin, a silane-modified polyester resin, a silane-modified polyphenol resin, a silane-modified polyurethane resin, a silane-modified epoxy resin, and a silane-modified polyamide resin. As a result, the coated lithium-nickel composite oxide particles exhibit conductivity, and said compound is capable of suppressing the transmission of water and carbonic acid gas. Consequently, it is possible to provide coated lithium-nickel composite oxide particles for use in a lithium-ion battery positive electrode active material which is excellent for use in a lithium-ion battery.
