Abstract
Disclosed are a composite electrode material for a rechargeable battery; a method of making a composite electrode material; an electrode including the composite electrode material; cells including such electrodes; and devices including the cells. A composite electrode material for a rechargeable battery cell includes an electroactive material; and a polymeric binder including pendant carboxyl groups. The electroactive material includes one or more components selected from the group including an electroactive metal, an electroactive semi-metal, an electroactive ceramic material, an electroactive metalloid, an electroactive semi-conductor, an electroactive alloy of a metal, an electroactive alloy of a semi-metal and an electroactive compound of a metal or a semi-metal. The polymeric binder has a molecular weight in the range 300,000 to 3,000,000. 40 to 90% of the carboxyl groups of the binder are in the form of a metal ion carboxylate salt.
