▎ 摘  要

NOVELTY - Preparing functional positive electrode active material involves providing a first stock solution in which a base positive electrode active material including a compound of lithium, iron, phosphorus, and oxygen is dispersed in a first solvent; providing a second stock solution in which graphene powder is dispersed in a second solvent; and preparing a functional positive electrode active material in which the graphene powder is doped into the base positive electrode active material by mixing and heat-treating the first stock solution and the second stock solution. USE - Method for preparing functional positive electrode active material used in lithium secondary battery for vehicles, smartphones. ADVANTAGE - The functional positive electrode active material has high stability against high-speed charge/discharge and a long lifespan, increases battery capacity and demand in market. The positive electrode active material is prepared with an easy mass production and less production cost and time, has high charge/discharge properties by configuring a lithium secondary battery together with the solid electrolyte. The graphene powder can not only enhance the conductivity of a positive electrode, but also function as an active material that occludes and desorbs lithium ions along with the base positive electrode active material, thereby enhancing a charge/discharge capacity.
