A method for producing an electrode for a non-aqueous electrolyte battery with improved charge/discharge characteristics such as discharge capacity and charge/discharge cycle life and with improved physical properties of the coating film. A mixture-coating material is prepared by kneading an active material composed of LixNiyMzO2 (0.8<x<1.5, 0.8<y+z<1.2, 0≤z<0.35; M is at least one element selected from Co, Mg, Ca, Sr, Al, Mn and Fe), an electrically conductive agent composed of a graphite having a flaky shape, and a binder and/or a solvent in a kneading apparatus under a condition satisfying the formula: <MATH> where a specific surface area of the active material by BET is represented by Sa, a blending weight thereof at the kneading step is represented by Wa, a specific surface area of the graphite by BET is represented by Sg, and a blending weight thereof at the kneading step is represented by Wg. The obtained mixture-coating material is applied onto a collector. <IMAGE> |
