Popis: Abstract In this paper, [Ni0.9Co0.1](OH)2 precursor is used to dope H3BO3 to synthesize positive electrode material when mixing lithium in wet method, and to explore the best doping by testing the microscopic morphology and electrochemical performance of the positive electrode material amount and calcination temperature. After doping with B, the microstructure of the material is improved, and the primary crystal grains are oriented and agglomerated into a needle shape. This good crystal structure can slow down the generation of grain microcracks and mechanical fracture, and improve the cycle stability of the positive electrode material. After doping B, the discharge specific capacity was slightly improved. When the calcination temperature is 750 °C and the doping amount of B is 1.0 mol%, the first discharge specific capacity reaches 223 mAh g−1. More importantly, the capacity retention rate of the battery after 100 cycles has been greatly improved, from 74 % without doping B to 87 %.
