Abstract
Abstract An evacuated, sealed container for pure elemental sodium is disclosed which has a casing, an ionic conducting portion in the casing, an electronic conductor in contact with the interior surface of the ionic conducting portion and extending outwardly from the casing. Such a container, when it is filled with pure elemental sodium, provides a suitable device for storing and dispensing the pure elemental sodium, or provides a sodium electrode with an associated ionic conducting electrolyte. A method is also described for forming such an evacuated, sealed container, and for filling the container with pure elemental sodium.
