ELECTRODE MATERIAL, METHOD FOR PRODUCING THE SAME, AND LITHIUM BATTERY

摘要

Provided are: an electrode material for long-life lithium batteries capable of high energy density and high output, and capable of maintaining the same for many years; a manufacturing method for the electrode material; and a lithium battery. The electrode material, which can be used in the positive and negative electrodes of a lithium battery, is formed by compositing a carbonaceous conductive material and an electrode active material. In the electrode material, the carbonaceous conductive material undergoes hydrophilization using a gas containing fluorine gas. In the aforementioned compositing, a mixture of the electrode active material and the carbonaceous conductive material that has undergone hydrophilization is fired in the presence of a fluororesin.
