Elucidating the Structure-Performance Relationship in Single-Particle NCM Cathodes via Controlled Precursor Synthesis

Key Points

• The central aim is to explore how precursor synthesis affects the performance of Ni-rich layered oxide cathodes.
• Controlled synthesis of single-particle NCM cathodes
• Analysis of intergranular cracking and mechanical degradation in cathodes
• Evaluation of cathode materials performance metrics
• Identified the relationship between precursor structure and cathode performance
• Observed mechanical degradation influencing the practical application of Ni-rich oxides
