Abstract

A process for conditioning an electrochemical cell comprising the steps of fabricating an electrochemical cell comprising a first electrode which comprises a carbonaceous active material and a lithium polysilicate binder, a second electrode, and an electrolyte, and controllably cycling the electrochemical cell, and in turn, forming a passivation layer near the interface between the first electrode and the electrolyte.
