ELECTRODE COMPOSITIONS USEFUL FOR ENERGY STORAGE DEVICES AND OTHER APPLICATIONS; AND RELATED DEVICES AND PROCESSES

摘要

A positive electrode composition is described, containing granules of at least one electroactive metal and at least one alkali metal halide. The granules have a substantially spheroidal shape. An energy storage device and an uninterruptable power supply device are also described. They include compartments for positive and negative electrode compositions; a solid separator capable of transporting alkali metal ions between the compartments; and associated current collectors for the electrodes. The positive electrode composition contains substantially spheroidal granules. Related methods for the preparation of an energy storage device are also disclosed.
