Electrolytes, anodes, and cathodes for high energy density battery with 200 watt hours per pound of total battery weight
Vapor pressure, anode temperature, and inverse emission effects on thallium filled diode tested with barium cathode
Corrosion resistance and anode activity data on interstitial compounds for fuel cell catalysts
Electron diffusion process in beam plasma passing through electrically floating anode
Electrochemical oxidation of zinc and cadmium in potassium hydroxide - thermal decomposition, and deposition of silver oxide on zinc anodes
X rays emitted by energetic vacuum spark, discussing pinch in plasma of evaporated anode metal
Study establishes the quality of chemical and galvanized protection afforded by anodized and aldozided coatings applied to test panels of various aluminum alloys. The test panels, placed in firm contact with panels of titanium alloys, were subjected to salt spray tests and visually examined for corrosion effect.
Magnetron tuning arrangement features a means of moving a tuning ring axially within an anode cavity by a system of reduction gears engaging a threaded tuning shaft of lead screw. The shaft positions the tuning ring for the desired magnetron output frequency, and a washer prevents backlash.
High-energy-density primary battery achieves energy densities of up to 130 watt hrs./lb. The electrochemical couple consists of a lithium anode, a copper-fluoride cathode, and uses methyl formate/lithium hexafluoroarsenate for the electrolyte. Once achieved, battery life is approximately 30 hours.
Results of experiments on hydrogen-oxygen fuel cells show that higher current densities are obtained with cell anodes having a 100 micron thin active layer of porous nickel containing silver electrocatalyst. Increase in current density is attributed to a convective mass transport mechanism.
Theoretical analysis of thermally regenerative bimetallic cells with alkali metal anodes shows a relation between the current drawn and the rate of discharge under open-circuit conditions. The self-discharge rate of the cell is due to the dissolution and ionization of alkali metal atoms in the fused-salt electrolyte
Magnesium-air batteries with anodic solutions having pH range of 6 to 9
Passive current maxima during anodic polarization of stainless steel in sulfuric acid, using electrochemical and electron microprobes
Near cathode magnetic field effect on instability in linear Hall current accelerators, using geometry of field extending from anode to cathode region
Saturation electron emission characteristics from incompletely outgassed Ta wire emitters immersed in Cs vapor using plasma anode technique, noting oxygen effects
Lap-shear strengths of Mg-Al alloy bonded with nylon-epoxy adhesive, including anodized coating rolling schedule and honeycomb core fabrication
Repair operation for damaged aluminum parts includes anodizing the part, removing the oxide layer, filling the pit or scratch with copper, capping the fill with cadmium, and hand polishing.
Platinum-silver, palladium-gold, and platinum-gold alloys serve as oxygen reduction catalysts in high-current-density cells. Catalysts were tested on polytetrafluoroethylene-bonded cathodes and a hydrogen anode at an operating cell temperature of 80 degrees C.
