The present technology described relates to lithium-based alloy electrode materials used for the production of anode in lithium accumulators and processes for obtaining same. The alloy comprises metallic lithium, a metallic component Xselected from magnesium and aluminum and a metallic component Xselected from alkali metals, alkaline earth metals, rare earths, zirconium, copper, silver, bismuth, cobalt, zinc, aluminum, silicon, tin, antimony, cadmium, mercury, lead, manganese, boron, indium, thallium, nickel, germanium, molybdenum and iron. Processes for preparing electrode materials thus obtained and their uses are also described.

A process for the recycling of an electrochemically active material is described. The process comprises the steps of reacting the electrochemically active material with an oxidizing agent or a reducing agent in a solvent without addition of a strong acid, to produce a lithium salt and a delithiated electrochemically active material precipitate. This precipitate is separated from the lithium salt and used in the regeneration of the electrochemically active material.

Crosslinked polymers and their uses in electrochemical systems, for example, as electrolyte membrane, are described. More precisely, these crosslinked polymers are formed by the crosslinking of a random copolymer based on monomers of glycidyl methacrylate or acrylate and of poly(ethylene glycol) methyl acrylate or methacrylate with a volatile polyamine crosslinking agent.
