“…In contrast, the splitting peak of pristine NCM622 is almost eliminated, demonstrating the layered structure has withstood a vicious transformation to the rock-salt phase and hindered the diffusion of lithium-ions. [45,46] These results further prove that the BTO-modified helps maintain the bulk structure of nickel-rich cathode.…”

Nickel‐rich cathode materials have been regarded as the most promising candidates for lithium‐ion batteries because of their superior specific capacity and cost‐effectiveness. However, the rapid capacity fade under high current density and serious side reactions during long‐term cycling hinder its wide application. In this study, piezoelectric BaTiO3 nanodots are employed as a functional coating layer on the LiNi0.6Co0.2Mn0.2O2 cathode material to balance the relationship between structure and performance. A three‐phase interface model is proposed including the LiNi0.6Co0.2Mn0.2O2 cathode material, uniform piezoelectric BaTiO3 nanodots, and the electrolyte. The coating layer plays a key role in the rapid diffusion of lithium‐ions as well as stabilizing the bulk structure of the cathode materials. Furthermore, the possible by‐products generated during the electrochemical cycling that can be alleviated by the modification of BaTiO3 are detected by using differential electrochemical mass spectrometry. As expected, our strategy efficiently improves the structural stability and holds a high‐rate performance.

Ni-rich cathode materials have become one of the most promising cathode materials for advanced high-energy Li-ion batteries (LIBs) owing to their high specific capacity. However, Ni-rich cathode materials are sensitive to the trace H2O and CO2 in the air, and tend to react with them to generate LiOH and Li2CO3 at the particle surface region (named residual lithium compounds, labeled as RLCs). The RLCs will deteriorate the comprehensive performances of Ni-rich cathode materials and make trouble in the subsequent manufacturing process of electrode, including causing low initial coulombic efficiency and poor storage property, bringing about potential safety hazards, and gelatinizing the electrode slurry. Therefore, it is of considerable significance to remove the RLCs. Researchers have done a lot of work on the corresponding field, such as exploring the formation mechanism and elimination methods. This paper investigates the origin of the surface residual lithium compounds on Ni-rich cathode materials, analyzes their adverse effects on the performance and the subsequent electrode production process, and summarizes various kinds of feasible methods for removing the RLCs. Finally, we propose a new research direction of eliminating the lithium residuals after comparing and summing up the above. We hope this work can provide a reference for alleviating the adverse effects of residual lithium compounds for Ni-rich cathode materials' industrial production.

To address increasingly prominent energy problems, lithium-ion batteries have been widely developed. The high-nickel type nickel-cobalt-manganese (NCM) ternary cathode material has attracted attention because of its high energy density, but it has problems such as cation mixing. To address these issues, it is necessary to start from the surface and interface of the cathode material, explore the mechanism underlying the material's structural change and the occurrence of side reactions, and propose corresponding optimization schemes. This article reviews the defects caused by cation mixing and energy bands in high-nickel NCM ternary cathode materials. This review discusses the reasons why the core-shell structure has become an optimized high-nickel ternary cathode material in recent years and the research progress of core-shell materials. The synthesis method of high-nickel NCM ternary cathode material is summarized. A good theoretical basis for future experimental exploration is provided.
