CAST OPEN-MESH ELECTRODE FOR SEA WATER BATTERIES

摘要

A battery electrode structure of flat configuration comprises a cast mass of electrochemically active material, said mass having contained therein and exposed opposite surfaces thereof an open-mesh electrically conductive structure adapted for connection to a battery terminal. An open-mesh electrically conductive support member in the mass and in contact with the exposed electrically conductive structure maintains electrical conductivity throughout discharge to ensure maximum use of the active material.
