Abstract:
A positive electrode active material includes a lithium complex oxide particle, and a coating layer formed on at least a part of the surface of the lithium complex oxide particle. The lithium complex oxide particle is a lithium complex oxide particle composed mainly of nickel. The coating layer contains an oxo acid and/or an oxo acid compound, an acidity of the surface of the lithium complex oxide particle composed mainly of nickel is increased by the coating layer. The acidity is determined based on a pH of a supernatant of water in a state where after 1.0 part by weight of the lithium complex oxide particle composed mainly of nickel and having a coating layer formed thereon is dispersed in 50 parts by weight of water. The lithium complex oxide particle sediments, and the pH is less than 8.0.
