Abstract
A positive electrode active material which predominantly includes lithium transition metal composite oxide particles containing Ni and Al, and which has a low charge transfer resistance and thus allows the battery capacity to be increased. The composite oxide particles contain 5 mol % or more Al relative to the total molar amount of metal elements except Li, include a particle core portion and an Al rich region on or near the surface of the composite oxide particle wherein the Al concentration in the particle core portion is not less than 3 mol % and the Al concentration in the Al rich region is 1.3 times or more greater than the Al concentration in the particle core portion. The composite oxide particles contain 0.04 mol % or more sulfate ions relative to the total molar amount of the particles.
