Method of making chalcogenide cathodes

摘要

A chalcogenide cathode is made by applying a slurry of a mixture containing at least one intercalatable layered transition metal chalcogenide cathode active material, a conductivity enhancing agent and a binding agent in a vehicle therefor to a high porosity current collector substrate which has been previously treated by applying and drying an adhesion promoting agent thereon and then heating the substrate in an inert atmosphere to drive off the vehicle and coalesce the binding agent.
