The present invention relates to an electrode comprising electrode active material particles, conductive particles, a binder and wax, wherein the electrode active material particles are interconnected by a network of the conductive particles, and the paths of the conductive particles interconnecting the electrode active materials are partially or entirely fixed by the wax. Furthermore, the present invention provides an electrochemical device comprising the electrode. By use of wax having a low meting viscosity in order to partially or entirely fix the paths of the conductive particles, which interconnect the spaced electrode active material particles, the present invention can improve processibility and safety of the electrochemical device. |
