<p>An active material of a positive electrode for a non-aqueous electrode secondary battery employing lithium cobaltate represented by the formula LiCoO2, which comprises a mixture of primary particles of small crystals having a Feret's diameter in a projection drawing by SEM observation in a range from 0.4 to 10 νm and an average diameter of 5 νm or less, and secondary particles formed by coagulation of the primary particles and having a diameter of 4 to 30 νm, wherein the mole ratio of Co to Li is 0.97 to 1.03, at least a part of small crystals constituting the secondary particles are jointed by the junction through sintering, and the secondary particles are in the shape of a circle or an ellipse. And also are provided an active material of a positive electrode for a non-aqueous electrode secondary battery, wherein secondary particles account for 90% or more of the particles having a Feret's diameter of 9 νm or more and particles having a Feret's diameter of 6 νm or more constitute 70% or more by volume of the total mixture, which allows the improvement of discharge capacity, capability of keeping the level of discharge capacity, and high efficiency discharge capacity and a method for the production thereof, and a non-aqueous electrode secondary battery manufactured using the active material of a positive electrode.</p> |
