TLDR
A BATTERY ELECTRODE is composed of a POUOUS FABRIC BASE, SUCH AS NON-WOVEN NYLON, on which there is NONELECTROLYTICALLY PLATED a THIN COATING of CONDUCTIVE METAL onto WHICH there is ELECTROPLATED a RELATIVELY THICK COating of METAL, SUch as NICKEL, and the THUS PLATED BASE then has an ACTIVE MATERIAL, SU CH AS NICKel HYDROXide OR CAD
Abstract
A BATTERY ELECTRODE IS COMPOSED OF A POUOUS FABRIC BASE, SUCH AS NON-WOVEN NYLON, ON WHICH THERE IS NONELECTROLYTICALLY PLATED A THIN COATING OF CONDUCTIVE METAL ONTO WHICH THERE IS ELECTROPLATED A RELATIVELY THICK COATING OF METAL, SUCH AS NICKEL, AND THE THUS PLATED BASE THEN HAS AN ACTIVE MATERIAL, SUCH AS NICKEL HYDROXIDE OR CADMIUM HYDROXIDE DEPOSITS IN ITS PORES. AN ELECTRODE TERMINAL MAY BE CONNECTED DIRECTLY TO THE RESULTING ELECTRODE STRUCTURE OF TWO SUCH BASES MAY BE SANWICHED TOGETHER WITH A NICKEL MESH INTERPOSED THEREBETWEEN AND WITH THE ELECTODE TERMINAL ATTACHED TO THE MESH.
