Abstract
The present invention provides a positive electrode material for lithium secondary batteries, having: a positive electrode active material containing Li; and a cover disposed on the positive electrode active material, and containing Li and F, and further containing one or two or more cover elements from among Al, Ti, Zr, Ta and Nb. With a Point a as an arbitrary point of the cover in contact with the positive electrode active material, a Point c as a point on the surface of the cover at a shortest distance from the Point a, and a Point b as a midpoint between the Point a and the Point c, an analysis of the Point a, the Point b and the Point c by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy yields a ratio of Li concentration at the Point a with respect to the Li concentration at the Point b is 1.1 or higher and lower than 10.8, and a ratio of F concentration at the Point c with respect to F concentration at the Point b is 1.1 or higher and lower than 51.1.
