Silver zinc electric storage cells

摘要

In order to increase the cyclability life of rechargeable silver-zinc electric storage cells, the semi-permeable membrane separator between the silver and zinc electrodes comprises a laminate of plies of semi-permeable oriented cellophane foil bonded together with the electrolyte with some of the plies arranged cross-wise, as regards their direction of orientation, relative to another ply of the membrane. In a preferred embodiment a further single layer of cellophane is disposed between the silver electrode the absorbent paper layer which is normally positioned between the silver electrode and the membrane.
