Abstract
Abstract An improved active electrode composition for a plastic-bonded electrode of an electrochemical accumulator is described. A powder of the principal electrode active material is mixed with 1.5 - 60% by weight of oxalic and/or a salt thereof. The admixture of such ingredients with a suitable binding agent may then be applied to an expanded metallic collector and then heat and pressure treated in a conventional manner to obtain the required electrode.
