    Abstract: Process for producing a mixed lithium transition metal oxide usable as an active positive electrode material in lithium batteries, wherein i) a transition metal oxide, and/or a transition metal hydroxide and/or a transition metal oxyhydroxide and a pyrogenically produced zirconium dioxide and/or a pyrogenically produced mixed oxide comprising zirconium are subjected to dry mixing by means of an electric mixing unit to obtain a coated precursor compound, wherein the mixing unit has a specific electrical power of 0.05-1.5 kW per kg of the coated precursor compound; ii) the coated precursor compound is mixed with a lithium containing compound; and iii) the mixture of the coated precursor compound and the lithium containing compound is heated at a temperature between 500 and 1400° C. to obtain the mixed lithium transition metal oxide.
