BATTERY ELECTRODE MATERIALS

摘要

An electrode material for a battery or for a capacitor, supercapacitor or a pseudo capacitor comprises a porous substrate coated with a coating comprising a conducting material and an active material, wherein the thickness of the coating is less than 1 micrometre and the volume fraction of active material is greater than 5%. In another aspect, the electrode material comprises a metallic network structure and an active material connected to the metallic structure, wherein the calculated volume fraction of active material is greater than 5%, and the surface area of the material is greater than 5 m2/g.
