The highly active surfaces of Ni-rich cathodes usually result in rapid surface degradation, which is manifested by poor cycle and rate capabilities. In this work, we propose a simple method to restore those degraded after storage. More importantly, the mechanism degradation recovery are investigated thoroughly. As storage moist air, lithium carbonate (Li2CO3) dominated impurity layer formed tightly coated on LiNi0.70Co0.15Mn0.15O2 particles. Except for Li2CO3 layer, NiO rock-salt structure...
