An organosulfur compound-containing slurry composition for making an electrode. The slurry composition forms an electrode mixture layer that exhibits high adhesion to a current collector even when combined with inexpensive aluminum foil current collector and therefore achieves sufficient capacity. The slurry composition contains an organosulfur compound, a binder, an electroconductive agent, and a solvent and has a pH of 4.0 to 9.0. The slurry composition preferably contains a basic compound. The organosulfur compound is preferably at least one of sulfur-modified elastomer compounds, sulfur-modified polynuclear aromatic compounds, sulfur-modified pitch compounds, sulfur-modified aliphatic hydrocarbon oxides, sulfur-modified polyether compounds, polythienoacene compounds, carbon polysulfide compounds, sulfur-modified polyamide compounds, and sulfur-modified polyacrylonitrile compounds. |
