METHOD FOR PRODUCING POSITIVE ELECTRODE ACTIVE MATERIAL FOR LITHIUM ION SECONDARY BATTERY, AND MOLDED BODY

A method for producing a positive electrode active material for a lithium ion secondary battery containing lithium-nickel composite oxide, includes: mixing a nickel compound, a lithium compound, and organic compound particles to obtain a lithium mixture; molding the lithium mixture to obtain a molded body; firing the molded body to obtain a fired body; and crushing the fired body to obtain lithium-nickel composite oxide powder.
