Verfahren zur Herstellung einer Kohlenstoffelektrode.

摘要

A carbon electrode is prepared by the steps of subjecting a hydrocarbon to vapor phase pyrolysis to form a pyrolytic carbon having a specific X-ray diffraction peak half-width; contacting the pyrolytic carbon with lithium vapor to obtain a lithium-intercalated pyrolytic carbon; and forming the lithium-intercalated pyrolytic carbon into an electrode. The pyrolytic carbon is preferably formed on a substrate, especially an iron group metal, and the electrode may be used with advantage as cathode in a non-aqueous secondary battery.
