Kgaa, Dortmund, Germany, on Sept. 24, for 'electrochemical electrode structure, electrochemical cell, and method of retrofitting a finite-gap electrochemical cell into a zero-gap type electrochemical cell.'
Inventor(s) include Hamada, Tsuyoshi; Iguchi, Yukinori; Tanaka, Masato; and Kawanishi, Koji.
The application for the patent was published on Oct. 10, under issue no. 41/2025.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present invention relates to an electrochemical electrode structure comprising a current collector and at least one electrode element, wherein the at least one electrode element is a two-dimensionally extended electrically conductive element having an open structure. In this electrochemical electrode structure, the at least one electrode element has at least one edge with a hemming rim at which a strip portion of the electrode is hemming bent away. Moreover, the invention relates to an electrochemical cell comprising a first electrode, a second electrode and a separator, with either the first electrode or the second electrode or both electrodes being such an electrochemical electrode structure as well as to a method of retrofitting a finite-gap electrochemical cell into a zero-gap type electrochemical cell using such electrochemical electrode structure."
The patent application was internationally filed on Apr. 02, 2024, under International application No.PCT/EP2024/058917.
