Abstract
A review of the current status of silver‐zinc battery technology is presented as part of an attempt to organize, on a fundamental basis, the varied design improvements developed as a result of empirical studies. Past efforts to improve the secondary silver‐zinc system have been devoted to (a) stabilization of the zinc electrode structure, (b) control of zinc dendrite growth, (c) increasing the utilization of the silver electrode, (d) separator improvements, and (e) development of sealed batteries. Improvements that have been suggested in these areas are often mutually exclusive and interdependent. Clarification of the fundamental processes involved is necessary for the creation of an optimum battery configuration.
