Abstract: A positive electrode material is used to produce a positive electrode of a lithium secondary battery, the positive electrode material being a composite lithium material that includes a first lithium compound and a second lithium compound. For instance, the first lithium compound is in the form of particles and comprises at least one compound selected from a layered lithium compound and a spinel-type lithium compound. Preferably, the second lithium compound comprises at least one compound selected from a lithium-containing phosphate compound and a lithium-containing silicate compound. An amorphous carbon material layer and/or graphene-structured carbon material layer is present on the entire surface of the first lithium compound and the second lithium compound. The second lithium compound forms a thin-film layer on part or the entirety of the carbon material layer present on the surface of the first lithium compound particles.

Abstract: The present invention provides an electrode material, for a lithium battery, which is capable of achieving a high-energy density and a high output and continuing its properties for many years, a method of producing the electrode material, and the lithium battery. The electrode material for use in positive and negative electrodes of a lithium battery is formed as a complex by combining a carbon-based conductive material and an electrode active material with each other. The carbon-based conductive material of the electrode material is subjected to hydrophilic treatment by using a gas containing fluorine gas. The electrode material is formed as the complex by calcining a mixture of the carbon-based conductive material subjected to the hydrophilic treatment and the electrode active material in the presence of fluororesin.

Abstract: The present invention provides positive and negative electrodes, for a lithium secondary battery, allowing a battery to be quickly and fully charged in a very short period of time, for example, within one minute and allowing the battery to be used for vehicles at low temperatures. An organic electrolytic solution is permeated into an electrode group formed by winding positive and negative electrodes or by laminating the positive and negative electrodes one upon another with a separator being interposed therebetween to repeatingly occlude and release lithium ions. The positive electrode active substance and the negative electrode active substance have at least one phase selected from among a graphene phase and an amorphous phase as a surface layer thereof. An activated carbon layer is formed on a surface of the positive electrode active substance and that of the negative electrode active substance.

Abstract: The invention provides a method for measuring CK-MB in a sample by reacting the sample with a first antibody against CK-MB, a second antibody against CK-MB which recognizes an epitope different from that recognized by the first antibody, and an anti-CK-B antibody which recognizes a region of the 1st to 100th amino acid from N-terminus of the amino acid sequence of the subunit B of creatine kinase (step 1); measuring an optical change generated by the reaction (step 2); and determining a quantity of CK-MB in the sample on the basis of the result obtained in the step 2 (step 3). The invention also provides a kit to be used in the method, and a method for avoiding influence of creatine kinase BB isozyme in measuring CK-MB, comprising treating a sample with the anti-CK-B antibody.
