Abstract
A method for preparing an active substance for positive electrode in non-aqueous electrolytic secondary cells making use of a lithium or lithium alloy negative electrode is described. The method comprises providing an amorphous citrate complex of lithium and a transition metal and firing the complex at a predetermined temperature to obtain an active substance. The citrate complex is obtained by preparing an aqueous mixed solution of lithium hydroxide or carbonate, a water-soluble transition metal salt and citric acid and dehydrating the mixed solution to obtain an amorphous citrate complex. The complex is then fired at a temperature ranging from 300.degree. to 900.degree. C. to obtain an active substance.
