Abstract

To provide a manufacturing method for a regenerated positive electrode capable of recovering resistance increase due to reduced adhesion of positive electrode active material particles, etc., and recovering capacity reduction due to lithium depletion in a positive electrode.SOLUTION: A manufacturing method for a regenerated positive electrode in a used lithium-ion secondary battery including a laminate having a positive electrode, either a separator or a solid electrolyte layer, and a negative electrode, includes extracting the positive electrode from the laminate, pressing the extracted positive electrode, and doping lithium ions into the pressed positive electrode. The doping of lithium ions is performed by discharging in an electrolyte solution using a lithium electrode as a counter electrode.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 3
