METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING ELECTRIDE OF MAYENITE-TYPE COMPOUNDS

摘要

Provided is a manufacturing method with which it is possible to convert a mayenite-type compound to an electride, wherein a reducing agent is not required, reaction conditions include a temperature that is lower than that in the related art, and the reaction is performed more quickly in a simple manner, and, additionally, by requiring a lower amount of energy. Provided is a method for manufacturing an electride of mayenite-type compounds, the method being characterized in that a mayenite-type compound is converted to an electride by making a current directly flow through the mayenite-type compound by applying a voltage to the mayenite-type compound in a heating state.
