  • Zinc alkaline secondary battery including anchored electrolyte additives
    Patent number: 11258103
    Abstract: A zinc alkaline secondary battery includes a positive electrode, a negative electrode including a multi-valent oxide species, a separator system disposed between the electrodes, and an alkaline electrolyte in contact with the negative electrode. The alkaline electrolyte includes hexametaphosphate salt and zinc acetate. Ligands from the hexametaphosphate salt and zinc acetate are anchored to the negative electrode via chelation sites created by the multi-valent oxide species.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 16, 2020
    Date of Patent: February 22, 2022
    Assignee: ZAF ENERGY SYSTEMS, INCORPORATED
    Inventors: Melissa D. McIntyre, Ernest Rimanosky, Adam Weisenstein, Cody R. Carter, Allen Charkey
