PROCESS FOR THE PRODUCTION OF ACTIVE ANODE MATERIALS FOR USE IN CELLS

摘要

Active anode materials comprising amalgamated zinc powder for use in cells, in which the corrosion of zinc is effectively inhibited by a smallest possible amount of mercury, may be produced by a process comprising atomizing molten zinc added with mercury to obtain pre-amalgamated zinc powder and bringing the thus obtained powder, which is dispersed in a liquid, into contact with mercury or an amalgam to further amalgamate said pre-amalgamated zinc powder.
