Abstract
A method for supplementing lithium for a secondary battery includes performing a first round of lithium-supplementing charge and discharge on the secondary battery during routine charge-and-discharge cycles of the secondary battery if a capacity of the secondary battery has reduced by k1 in comparison with an initial capacity and performing a round of lithium-supplementing charge and discharge on the secondary battery after the first round of lithium-supplementing charge and discharge if the capacity of the secondary battery has reduced by k2 in comparison with the capacity achieved after a previous round of lithium-supplementing charge and discharge. k1 and k2 each are in a range from 1.5% to 17%. In a round of lithium-spplementing charge and discharge, a number of times of charge and discharge is at least one and a charge cut-off voltage is in a range from 4.45 V to 5 V.
