Book ·
OSTI ID:5147141

This volume, on secondary batteries and their commercial technology, is based on the technical information contained in U.S. patents issued since July 1975. The following subtect areas are covered: lead--acid batteries--grid plates and electrodes, lead pastes, electrode sheaths, separators, electrolyte additives, venting techniques and cap design, terminal connectors, handles, hydrogen--oxygen recombination techniques, recovery of scrap battery materials, general construction and fabrication; zinc electrodes and batteries--zinc electrodes, separators, control of dendrite formation, silver--zinc batteries, zinc--halogen batteries, air--zinc batteries, other processes; nickel--cadmium and other alkaline batteries--nickel electrodes, venting and capping techniques, general construction for nickel--cadmium cells, nickel--iron cells, other processes; sodium--sulfur solid-electrolyte batteries--general cell design, electrode construction, beta-alumina processing, other processes; lithium batteries--metal chalcogenide cathodes, metallic sulfide cathodes, other electrodes and processes; and other battery systems (including Pb/O, AgO/H, Fe/AgO, Fe/air, Na/I, H/halogen, Al/S, and redox flow cells. Company, inventor, and patent number indexes are included. (RWR)
