The TiP_2O_7-coated LiNi_(0.8)Co_(0.15)Al_(0.05)O_2 is characterized by Xray diffraction analysis, scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy to investigate the microstructure and morphology. The differential scanning calorimetry was employed to confirm the improved thermal stability. The electrochemical properties were evaluated by the constant-current charge/discharge tests. The TiP_2O_7 coating layer is effectively suppressing the structural degradation and ameliorating the surface status of LiNi_(0.8)Co_(0.15)Al_(0.05)O_2 particles, and the intrinsic rhombohedral layered structure of TiP_2O_7-coated LiNi_(0.8)Co_(0.15)Al_(0.05)O_2 was well maintained during the long-term cycling process, while the surface structure of pristine LiNi_(0.8)Co_(0.15)Al_(0.05)O_2 was degraded from rhombohedral R3 m layered structure to cubic rock-salt structure.
