Compositions and methods of producing composite materials for use as a cathode in electrochemical cells. Elemental sulfur is mixed with tungsten sulfide (WS.sub.2) to form a composite mixture. Organic comonomers may be added to the composite mixture. The composite mixture is reacted to form the composite material. Electrochemical cells with cathodes containing the composite material demonstrated improved battery performance.

A method for forming a polyarylene sulfide is described. The method can include a multi-step cooling and precipitation process in which the cooling rate of the solution that carries the polymer is decreased during a portion of the overall cooling. This slower cooling period can encompass at least a portion of the period during which the polymer precipitates from the solution. The precipitation process can form polyarylene sulfide particles with good particle integrity and a narrow particle size distribution, which can reduce fines and improve downstream processing and final product characteristics.

A method for forming a polyarylene sulfide with a relatively low content of volatile malodorous compounds is provided. More particularly, such low compound levels may be achieved by selectively controlling the manner in which the polyarylene sulfide is washed after it is formed.

Provided are a continuous production method and a continuous production apparatus utilizing the solution polycondensation for aromatic cyclic oligomers, which achieve a good space-time yield and are inexpensive and simple. The continuous production method includes: (a) supplying a polymerization solvent and a reaction raw material to a continuous production apparatus; (b) performing a polymerization reaction in the reaction vessels to form a reaction mixture; (c) removing water in gas phase parts of the reaction vessels from the reaction vessels; and (d) successively moving the reaction mixture to each of the reaction vessels; the steps (a), (b), (c), and (d) being performed in parallel; wherein an amount of the polymerization solvent in the reaction vessel positioned furthest downstream in a movement direction of the reaction mixture is not less than 1 L and not greater than 50 L per 1 mol of arylene units in the reaction raw material.
