Disclosed herein is a cathode active material based on lithium nickel oxide represented by Formula 1, wherein the lithium nickel oxide has a nickel content of at least 40% among overall transition metals and is coated with a compound not reacting with an electrolyte (“non-reactive material”), which is selected from a group consisting of oxides, nitrides, sulfides and a mixture or combination thereof not reacting with an electrolyte, as well as a carbon material, at a surface of the lithium nickel oxide. |
