Silver migration and transport mechanism studies in silver oxide--zinc batteries

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:7212640
This study was made by using radioactive silver tracers as well as by straight analytical techniques. This transport is due primarily to diffusion. Various kinds of separator materials were tested with respect to reactivity with dissolved silver oxides as well as with respect to effectiveness in preventing the transport of silver in a working silver--alkaline battery.
