Herein, we thoroughly unearth the underlying mechanism that triggers the ion exchange of Ni-rich materials in aqueous solutions by examining time-resolved structural evolution combined with theoretical calculations. Our results reveal that the reaction pathway of ion exchange can be divided into two steps: protonation and lithiation. The proton is the key to achieving charge balance in the ion exchange process, as revealed by X-ray adsorption spectroscopy and inductive coupled plasma analysis. In addition, the intermediate product shows high lattice distortion during ion exchange, but it ends up with a most stable product with high lattice energy. Such apparent discrepancies in lattice energy between materials before and after ion exchange emphasize the importance of synthetic design in structural stability.
