An electrochemical cell comprising:
- a cathode comprising an active layer and a conductive layer;
- an anode comprising an active layer with at least one disordered carbon material and a conductive layer, the at least one disordered carbon material in the active layer of the anode being adhered to the conductive layer of the anode using a binder slurry that comprises:
- carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC);
- styrene butadiene rubber (SBR);
- and
- water;
- and
- an electrolyte in communication with the anode and the cathode.
