Composite electrode for storage batteries, accumulators and the like

Patent ·
OSTI ID:5651994
A composite electrode for storage batteries and the like comprises a metal current-carrying support provided with a surface array of perforations and covered on opposite sides with perforate synthetic-resin layers of net, screen, fabric, or the like. These synthetic-resin layers are fused together at points through the openings of the metal support. The synthetic-resin layers may form retaining pockets for the active mass, and the latter may be covered on both sides or one side of the electrode with additional layers of porous synthetic-resin material, preferably a fleece or mat of nonwoven synthetic-resin fibers.
