A preparation method of a high-capacity monocrystalline type ternary 
cathode material comprises steps as follows: S1, a 
nickel cobalt manganese hydroxide precursor of a core-shell structure is prepared with a 
coprecipitation method, a loose and porous core is prepared by intermittently introducing a certain quantity of 
bicarbonate at the initial stage of core making, after core making ends, and loose flaky shells are prepared by substantially reducing the rotation speed and increasing pH; meanwhile, at the core-shell 
transition stage, a dispersant is added to effectively prevent agglomerationof the shells due to decrease of the rotation speed; S2, the prepared precursor and 
lithium salt are mixed and calcined once in the 
oxygen-rich 
atmosphere at the high temperature, and the monocrystalline type ternary 
cathode material is obtained. A battery is prepared from the ternary 
cathode material and has high capacity and good safety performance due to high 
lithium ion transport efficiency and reduced 
anisotropy in crystals. The problem of poor capacity of the material because of low 
lithium ion transport efficiency of monocrystalline type ternary materials is effectively solved. Besides,the monocrystalline type ternary 
cathode material is prepared through one-time 
sintering, the preparation procedure is simple, and the production cost is low.
