For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply.
3.1
magnetic impurities
impurities in cathode materials for lithium ion battery that can be adsorbed by magnetic rods with magnetic induction intensity of not less than 0.5T (5,000 Gauss)
Note: Magnetic impurities usually refer to elementary substances or compounds of iron, chromium, nickel and zinc.
3.2
large particle magnetic impurities

alkaline substance attached to the surface of cathode materials for lithium ion battery
Note: The residual alkali mainly exists in the form of lithium hydroxide and lithium carbonate. The residual alkali is expressed by lithium carbonate content after test, and the residual lithium is expressed by lithium content.
4 Determination of magnetic impurities content
4.1 Inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry
4.1.1 Principle
In a clean environment without magnetic impurities, a magnetic rod is used to adsorb and gather the magnetic impurities in cathode materials. The magnetic rod is washed with water to remove the cathode material attached to the surface, and the magnetic impurities are dissolved with acid solution. The emission intensity of each element is determined at the recommended wavelength by inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometer, and then the mass fraction of each element is calculated according to the standard working curve.
