A convenient, economical strategy of the "dipping-grinding-sliming" process followed by solid phase sintering was used for surface modification of Li-rich layered cathode materials Li_1.2Mn_0.54Ni_0.13Co_0.13O₂. The experimental results expressed that compared with pristine material, the surface-modified cathode material exhibited satisfactory cyclic stability. It had an initial capacity of more than 280 mAh·g^-1. After 70 charging-discharging cycles at 0.5C, it had capacity retention of 91.6%.
