Abstract

A method for analyzing the content of boron in a cathode active material is disclosed herein. In some embodiments, a method comprises (S1) introducing boron into a cathode active material to prepare a cathode active material sample, (S2) separating a first liquid layer and a first precipitate by dissolving the sample in water, treating the first liquid layer with acid to form a first resulting solution, and measuring the boron concentration in the first resulting solution by inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectroscopy (ICP-OES), (S3) separating a second liquid layer and a second precipitate by dissolving the first precipitate in water, treating the second liquid layer with acid to form a second resulting solution, and measuring the boron concentration of the second resulting solution by ICP-OES, and (S4) measuring the boron concentration of a third resulting solution, obtained by adding acid and hydrogen peroxide to the second precipitate, by ICP-OES.
