LITHIUM TITANIUM COMPOSITE OXIDE COMPRISING ALUMINUM-COATED PRIMARY PARTICLES AND MANUFACTURING METHOD THEREFOR

Abstract:

A lithium titanium composite oxide including aluminum-coated primary particles and a method for manufacturing the same are disclosed. A lithium titanium composite oxide including aluminum-coated primary particles according to an embodiment is manufactured by coating lithium titanium oxide primary particles with aluminum by mixing an aluminum compound with re-pulverized particles and then by spray-drying the mixture again to prepare secondary particles. A battery including the lithium titanium composite oxide including the aluminum-coated primary particles exhibits effects of suppressing electrolyte decomposition and gas generation that may be respectively caused by titanium ions and residual lithium in conventional lithium titanium composite oxides.
