  • Patent number: 10790507
    Abstract: A method for preparing cathode material for a lithium primary battery includes an active cathode material and an active anode material. The active cathode material is manganese dioxide, and the active anode material is either one of lithium metal and lithium alloy. The method includes: a first kneading step in which a boron compound and a thickening agent are kneaded with a diluent to prepare a paste made by dissolving the boron compound in the diluent; a second kneading step in which the paste is kneaded with a conductive additive; and a third kneading step in which the paste obtained in the second kneading step is kneaded with the active cathode material and a binder to prepare the cathode material in slurry form.

  • Patent number: 10658667
    Abstract: A conductive auxiliary agent for an electrode slurry for a battery. The electrode slurry contains an electrode active material and a conductive auxiliary agent, and is applied to a sheet-shaped current collector. The conductive auxiliary agent is a carbon paste produced by dispersing a carbon powder in a solvent. The carbon paste has a viscosity of at least 20 Pa·s and not more than 40 Pa·s. The carbon material can be acetylene black.

  • Patent number: 10374233
    Abstract: Slurry is prepared by dispersing a solvent containing fibrous carbon (carbon nanotube, vapor grown carbon fiber (VGCF (registered trademark))) by using a media-type disperser, and the slurry to be applied to a collector is obtained by kneading the prepared slurry and an electrode active material. As a media-type disperser, for example, a ball mill disperser or a bead mill disperser is used. The dispersion using the media-type disperser is performed for 5 to 10 hours. As a dispersant, for example, at least any one of a nonionic dispersant, an ethylenic dispersant, a polymeric dispersant and an amine dispersant is used. The dispersion is performed so that a fiber length of the fibrous carbon becomes 2 to 7 ?m.
