More Information
Summary:The present invention relates, inter alia, to a method of producing a co-precipitate comprising nickel, manganese and/or cobalt, and to a co-precipitate produced by the method. The method may be a method of producing a co-precipitate comprising at least two metals selected from nickel, cobalt and manganese, and comprise: (i) providing an aqueous feed solution comprising said at least two metals and at least one impurity; and (ii) adjusting the pH of the feed solution to between about 6.2 and about 11, so as to provide: (a) a co-precipitate comprising said at least two metals; and (b) a supernatant comprising said at least one impurity.
