    摘要: Provided are particles convertible to a lithium transition metal composite oxide that can reduce an initial resistance of a lithium ion secondary battery. The particles disclosed here are particles convertible to a lithium transition metal composite oxide by firing. Each of the particles includes lithium and a transition metal element. The particles have an average particle size of 2.0 µm or more. In the case of obtaining a reflected electron image of the particles with a scanning electron microscope, a domain observed as a brightest region in the particles has a maximum diameter less than 1 µm.

    摘要: A positive electrode (50) of a nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery (100) disclosed herein includes a positive electrode active material layer (54) with a multilayer structure including a positive electrode lower layer (54A) close to a positive electrode current collector (52) and a positive electrode upper layer (54B) far from the positive electrode current collector (52). The positive electrode lower layer (54A) includes a first positive electrode active material (1) including a first Ni content lithium complex oxide (1A) with a porosity of less than 2%. The positive electrode upper layer (54B) includes a second positive electrode active material (2) including a second Ni content lithium complex oxide (2A) that is in a form of a secondary particle in which primary particles (2p) are aggregated, has a porosity of 2 to 20%, and does not include a larger space than an average cross-sectional area of the primary particles (2p) inside the secondary particle, and a covering element (4). The ratio of the covering element (4) is 0.5 to 3 mol% when the total of metal elements of the second Ni content lithium complex oxide (2A) is 100 mol%.
