Abstract

The present invention provides a positive electrode of a nonaqueous electrolyte secondary cell which is prepared using an active substance containing a composition of LiNiaCobMcO2 (a+b+c=1;0≦c≦0.5) wherein M is at least one metal selected from among Mn, Fe, Zn, Ti, Cr, Mg, Al, Cu, or Ga and a composition of AlX(SO4)2 wherein X is at least one material selected from among Na, Rb, Cs, or NH4. This enables the secondary cell to diminish the reduction of a cell capacity when allowed to store and thus the storage characteristics of the secondary cell is improved.
