Hope you are talking about Li-battery cell. In order to wash the electrode, first, disassemble the cell inside the glove box, carefully remove the separator and wash it with DMC. After cleaning few times, keep the electrode inside the glove box for drying.

White layer is found on the electrode is due to the lithium oxide or hydroxide layer, form in presence of moisture. To avoid that you should use dry DMC.
