Abstract

Abstract Method for forming a porous sheet comprising a plurality of porous sheets (1,2) such as foamed sheet, mesh sheet and nonwoven fabric sheet. These sheets are adhered and layered to each other either by a melting or with an adhesive or by layering without each other with adhering (6a,6b) these sheets to each other. Then, the porous sheet (1,2) thus layered is plated at a high current density by forcibly applying plating liquid to the layered sheet in a direction substantially perpendicular thereto in a plating tank (4), or by vacuum evaporation while the layered sheet is being transported inside the vapor deposition vacuum container enclosed by a cooling tank through a cooling roller mounted therein. The metallic porous sheet formed according the above-described method is preferably used as the electrode of a battery.
