Abstract
The invention provides an electronically conductive tectosilicate which has, trapped within and forming part of its framework structure at the molecular or atomic level, colloidal particles of one or more electronically conducted species, which act to render the tectosilicate electronically conductive. The invention further provides a method of making such electronically conductive tectosilicate, wherein, for example, a zeolite is precipitated from the solution which has an electronically conductive species such as colloidal graphite in suspension therein, so that the colloidal particles of the electronically conductive species are trapped within and form part of the framework structure of the precipitate at the atomic or molecular level. The invention also extends to electronically conductive artifacts, such as electrodes for electrochemical cells, which are made from the electronically conductive tectosilicate by compacting the artifact from particles of the tectosilicate.
