Abstract: Electrode for a lithium storage battery, or a lithium battery, including: an active electrode material, made from silicon, a conductive agent, a binder comprising a mixture of two polymers: the first polymer having a first molecular weight, the first polymer being a first polyacrylate or one of its derivatives, the second polymer having a second molecular weight, the second polymer being a second polyacrylate or a carboxymethyl cellulose, or one of their respective derivatives. The first molecular weight is less than or equal to 400,000 g/mol and greater than or equal to 150,000 g/mol. The second molecular weight is greater than or equal to 650,000 g/mol and less than or equal to 4,000,000 g/mol.

Abstract: A composite electrode material is based on graphitic carbon and includes a ground product, dispersed within the graphitic carbon, of an intimate mixture of carbon fibers and silicon. The composite electrode material can be included in an electrode for electrical energy storage batteries along with one or more binders. The electrode is prepared by mechanically grinding carbon fibers and silicon particles in the presence of a solvent, drying the mixture until the solvent has disappeared completely, adding the dried ground product to the particles of graphitic carbon, mixing the whole in the presence of at least one binder, spreading the mixture on a current collector, and then drying.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for fabricating an electrode which includes coating of an aqueous ink over the whole or part of a current collector followed by drying of said ink. The aqueous ink is produced by acidification of an aqueous dispersion including an electrochemically active material having a titanium and lithium oxide base until a pH value comprised between 9.0±0.1 and 10.0±0.1 is obtained. The invention also relates to an aqueous ink for an electrode including an electrochemically active material having a titanium and lithium oxide base and having a pH between 9.0±0.1 and 10.0±0.1, preferably equal to 10±0.1.
