Abstract

Provided are a positive electrode active material that can provide a secondary battery extremely excellent in output characteristics and having sufficient volume energy density, a nickel-manganese composite hydroxide as a precursor thereof, and methods for producing these. A nickel-manganese composite hydroxide is represented by General Formula (1): NixMnyMz(OH)2+α, and contains a secondary particle formed of a plurality of flocculated primary particles. The nickel-manganese composite hydroxide has a half width of a (001) plane of at least 0.40° and has an average degree of sparsity/density represented by [(a void area within the secondary particle/a cross section of the secondary particle)×100] (%) falling within a range of greater than 22% and up to 40%.
