Abstract: Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) are widely used in many fields such as electronic products and vehicles due to their long-term cycling and no-memory effect. With the rapid development of domestic electric vehicles, higher requirements are put forward for the energy density, safety performance, cost, thermal stability, and cycle life of lithium-ion batteries. However, the battery performances depend deeply on the improvement of electrode materials. As the key component of LIBs, the cathode materials will directly affect the battery performances. Therefore, the nickel-rich LiNi0.8Co0.1Mn0.1O2 cathode (hereinafter referred to as NCM811) has attracted more and more attention owing to its extremely high discharge capacity (> 200 mAh/g). However, the poor thermal stability, cycle rate, and safety of NCM811 restrict its large-scale application in practice. Combining the crystal structure, synthesis method and current main problems of NCM811, the improving technology is summarized for electrochemical performance of nickel-rich NCM811 in recent years, focusing on the surface coating, ion doping and additive modification.

Key words: lithium-ion battery, high nickel ternary cathode material, LiNi0.8Co0.1Mn0.1O2 (NCM811), modification technology, conductive additive
