    Abstract: A method of preparing a positive electrode active material includes mixing a lithium raw material with a high nickel-containing transition metal hydroxide containing nickel in an amount of 60 mol % or more based on a total number of moles of the transition metal hydroxide and sintering the mixture to prepare a positive electrode active material, wherein the sintering includes a sintering step of heat-treating at 700° C. to 900° C. for 8 hours to 12 hours, a cooling step of cooling to room temperature, and an aging step of having a holding time when a temperature reaches a specific point during the cooling step. A positive electrode active material which is prepared by the method and has a reduced moisture content, and a positive electrode for a lithium secondary battery and a lithium secondary battery which include the positive electrode active material are also provided.

    Abstract: A positive electrode includes: a positive electrode active material layer formed on a surface of a positive electrode current collector, including two types of positive electrode active materials with different average particle diameters (D50), a conductive material, and a binder; and a carbon-based coating layer formed on a surface of the positive electrode active material layer. The two types of positive electrode active materials are each represented by Chemical Formula 1 below. The carbon-based coating layer includes a sphere-type conductive material and a binder, where the binder is included in an amount of 5 parts by weight or more and less than 10 parts by weight with respect to 100 parts by weight of the carbon-based coating layer.
