Method of making Li-intercalateable electrodes for a lithium-ion battery by applying a first film onto a first face of an electrically conductive grid, which film comprises a plurality of Li-intercalateable particles dispersed throughout a mixture of a polymeric binder and a plasticizer for the binder. Thereafter, a film-forming slurry having the same composition as the first film, plus a solvent therefor, is applied to a second face of the grid opposing the first face so as to provide a second film and such that the solvent in the slurry dissolves at least a portion of the first film and promotes solvent bonding of the films with the grid embedded therein. A polymeric backing film defining a separator is used as a manufacturing process aid, thereby eliminating the step of using a carrier film onto which the electrodes are fabricated and stripping off the carrier and discarding the same. |

DETAILED DESCRIPTION Manufacturing complexity, cost, and scrap rate can be reduced, production rates increased, and better contact between the grid and the electrode material achieved by a process according to the present invention. The invention involves using a separator as a backing film in the coating process. Since the separator is used in cells and batteries, it can be retained, unlike the carrier disclosed in copending application Ser. No. 09/862,388, which is removed and discarded. This improvement allows attachment of the separator at an earlier stage in the overall process, and further, eliminates steps. In a preferred embodiment, the separator is a polymeric backing film. The separator performs its conventional function as well as a new function, namely, that of a carrier or backing film.
