Nano-Tecture Ltd.
manganese oxides and lithiated forms; titanium
dioxide and lithiated forms; tin, tin alloys and lithiated
forms) with at least 75 wt% of the particles larger than
15μm is used. To increase structural strength, particles
may be deposited on a substrate. Binders and other
inactive materials that improve electrical conductivity
may be added.
