Abstract
An electrode for an electrochemical cell including a metal fluoride containing active electrode material and an intrinsically conductive coating wherein the coating is applied to the active electrode material by heating the mixture for a time and at a temperature that limits degradation of the cathode active material. The active material can be a hybrid material formed from the reaction of a metal fluoride and a metal complex.
Claims27
An electrode for an electrochemical cell, comprising:
- an active electrode material formed from a reaction in which the reactants comprise a metal fluoride material and a metal complex material;
- a binder material;
- and
- an intrinsically conductive coating covalently attached to the active electrode material wherein the coating is formed from an organic coating compound comprising a conjugated core.

A method of making an electrode, comprising:
- forming an active electrode material via a reaction in which the reactants comprise a metal fluoride material and a metal complex material;
- mixing the formed active electrode material and an intrinsic organic conductor comprising a conjugated core;
- and
- heating the mixture to form a conductive coating on the active electrode material at a temperature that limits degradation of the active electrode material.
