<p>The present invention is a method for improving the quality of glass to graphite bonds and seals used in high power density batteries, such as sodium-sulfur batteries. The method comprises depositing an interlayer of a two element compound formed from a group IVa or Va metallic element and a group Vb or VIb nonmetallic element, preferably titanium nitride, between the glass and graphite. The resultant structure is mechanically strong, and forms a leak-free bond when used in such batteries. The invention further comprises batteries including seals formed by the the disclosed method.</p> |
