Abstract: An electrode for an electrochemical energy storage device formed from an electrostatic deposition process employs a composite particle including active material (AM) particle with adhered binder and optionally conductive particles formed with sufficient interaction forces between the individual ingredient particles to form an effective composite particle which can overcome particle separation during electrostatic charging, fluidization, and/or mechanical conveyance. Secondary binder particles undergo deagglomeration to form sub particles, which are adhered to the AM particles having a predetermined morphology. Smaller conductive particles, typically carbon black (CB) or similar carbon, are bound to the binder and adhere to the AM particles. The result is a composite particle adhered for withstanding separation forces imposed from electrostatic deposition onto a current collector.

The solution includes compounds of desirable materials such as cobalt, nickel, aluminum and manganese dissolved as compounds from the exhausted cathode material of spent cells.

The desired materials precipitate out of solution without extensive heating or separation of the desired materials into individual compounds or elements. The resulting active cathode material has the predetermined ratio for use in new cells, and avoids high heat typically required to separate the useful elements because the desired materials remain commingled in solution.
