Abstract
An alkali metal anode is compressed on a metal current collector and is adhered thereto by means of a metal which spontaneously alloys with the alkali metal at room temperature.
Claims8
A method for adhering a alkali metal to a metallic surface substantially inert to said alkali metal comprising the steps of coating said metallic surface with a layer of a metal which is capable of spontaneously alloying with said alkali metal at ambient temperatures;
- and applying said solid alkali metal on said coated metallic surface with sufficient pressure to enable said plated metal to alloy with said solid alkali metal.
