  • Publication number: 20260196501
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method for producing a negative electrode, to a negative electrode, to a galvanic cell, and to uses of the galvanic cell. A coating which contains a polymer and/or ceramic particles is applied onto the upper face of a flat metal structure which does not consist of lithium, and a metal arrester is applied onto the lower face of the flat metal structure, said arrester having a plurality of openings in the direction of the metal structure. The metal arrester is then pressed into the metal structure by exerting a mechanical pressure, whereby the openings of the metal arrester are filled with metal of the metal structure at least in some regions. The method is simple and inexpensive to carry out and facilitates the production of a negative electrode which has many advantages.

  • Publication number: 20260088271
    Abstract: Disclosed are a method for producing an electrode for a galvanic cell, an electrode for a galvanic cell, a galvanic cell, and uses of the galvanic cell. The method comprises: applying a separator membrane to a planar electrode such that an intermediate space is formed between the planar electrode and the separator membrane; subsequently applying a liquid comprising a particular material to the separator membrane, wherein the liquid comprising material penetrates, by way of capillary forces, at least into the pores of the separator membrane, into the intermediate space between the planar electrode and the separator membrane and into pores of the planar electrode, wherein the liquid is subsequently evaporated. The method makes it easily and inexpensively possible to provide an electrode which exhibits a high energy density at the cell level and high chemical, electrochemical and mechanical stability, exhibits high cycle stability and allows high operating currents.
