Abstract
Metal is deposited on a three-dimensional network plastic substrate having internal open cells by a gas phase plating technique to form a metal layer covering all three-dimensional network lattice surface to form a support. An active material is carried on the support to form an electrode. The electrode is improved in active material-support adhesion, allows the amounts of conductive agent and binder to be reduced, and provides a cell with improved performance. It is especially useful in a secondary lithium cell.
