There is provided a method for producing an active material for a nonaqueous secondary battery, including firing an adherend in which a compound containing an element A (at least one element selected from among B, Al, Ga, In, Si, Ge, Sn, Mg and transition metal elements) is adhered to a particle surface of a material capable of being doped and dedoped with lithium ions, in a water-containing atmosphere so that weight increasing rate of the adherend is in a range of 0.1% by weight or more and 5.0% by weight or less, and firing the adherend.

Active material for nonaqueous secondary battery and method for producing same

The invention is to provide an aluminum titanate-based ceramics showing a good mechanical strength. The invention is an aluminum titanate-based ceramics obtained by firing a starting material mixture which contains a titanium element and an aluminum element, and further contains a chromium element and/or a tungsten element. Preferably, a content of a chromium source which contains the chromium element is from 0.001 to 5 parts by mass, and a content of a tungsten source which contains the tungsten element is from 0.001 to 1.0 part by mass relative to 100 parts by mass of the starting material mixture.

Aluminum titanate-based ceramics

The invention is to provide a process for producing an aluminum titanate-based ceramics body, wherein, as a regenerated starting material, a fired body recovered in a production process for an aluminum titanate-based ceramics body is used and the aluminum titanate-based ceramics body excellent in a mechanical strength and in a thermal characteristics such as low thermal expansion and heat resistance can be obtained. The invention provides a process for producing an aluminum titanate-based ceramics body using a fired ceramics body recovered in a production process for an aluminum titanate-based ceramics body, comprising the following steps: a step of preparing a pulverized product having a median particle diameter of 100 &#x3bc;m or less from the fired ceramics body; a step of preparing a regenerated clay containing the pulverized product and water; a step of shaping the regenerated clay to form a shaped body; and a step of firing the shaped body.
