Abstract

A method for manufacturing Li.sub.1+x Mn.sub.2 O.sub.4 comprising the steps of providing LiMn.sub.2 O.sub.4 or .beta.-MnO.sub.2 ; providing a source of lithium; dissolving lithium from the lithium source in a liquid medium in which lithium generates solvated electrons or the reduced form of an electron-transfer catalyst; and contacting the LiMn.sub.2 O.sub.4 or .beta.-MnO.sub.2 with the liquid medium containing the dissolved lithium and the solvated electrons or the reduced form of the electron-transfer catalyst.
