ENCAPSULATING A CORROSIVE MATERIAL WITH LITHIUM

摘要

The invention is addressed to a method for encapsulating a corrosive material with lithium wherein an encasing member having an opening is formed by folding and cold bonding a sheet of lithium into a receiving vessel. The corrosive material is poured into the vessel and the opening is pinched together to form a cold bond. The method is particularly adapted to the manufacture of primary cells where the vessel comprises the anode and the corrosive material is the cathode material.
