POLYRADICAL COMPOUND-CONDUCTIVE MATERIAL COMPOSITE BODY, METHOD FOR PRODUCING THE SAME, AND BATTERY USING THE SAME

摘要

Disclosed is a composite body of an electrode active material and a conductivity-imparting agent, which has high capacity density and enables to take out a large current. Also disclosed are a method for producing such a composite body, and a battery having high energy density and a large output power. Specifically, a polyradical compound as an electrode active material and a conductive material are heated and mixed at a temperature not less than the softening temperature but less than the decomposition temperature of the polyradical compound, thereby for forming a composite body of the polyradical compound and the conductive material. By producing an electrode using such a composite body, there can be obtained a novel battery having high energy density and large output power.
