METHOD OF MANUFACTURE OF AN ELECTRODE MATERIAL AND AN ELECTRODE MATERIAL

摘要

The present invention relates to a method of manufacturing an amorphous electrode material comprising the steps of: mixing an ionic liquid containing halide compound, nanostructures and precursors to form initially planar sheets of compounds of the halide and an element of the precursor to form a mixture; cooling the mixture to a temperature below ambient temperature, typically less than 3° C.; whereby the planar sheets are coated with the ionic liquid and curled to form microspheres of agglomerations of the curled planar sheets interconnected by the nanostructures. The invention further relates to an electrode material and to an interconnected network of electrode material.
