Power Technologies - Electrochemistry

Electrodes in batteries serve two purposes, current collectors and a mechanical coating substrate. Dexmet's expanded metal foils are uniquely structured to entrap the active powder or slurry into the openings during the coating process securely holding them during the cell manufacturing process. This support structure also functions as a current collector and provides the electrical connection point for the external circuit. We have many electrode designs suitable for different battery advanced battery designs and fuel cells.
