There is disclosed an electrochemical cathode for an electrochemical cell comprised of a current collecting layer or substrate having at least one side thereof to a layer of a nonwoven conductive fibrous web, preferably of conductive carbon fibers, impregnated with a mixture of carbon particles, carbon fibers of a length of less than about 1/8' and a nonfibrous polymeric substance, and optionally with a hydrophobic microporous film or layer disposed on the layer of the nonwoven conductive fibrous web as well as the product produced thereby.

Electrochemical cathode

There is disclosed a process for producing an electrochemical cathode for an electrochemical cell comprised of a current collecting layer or substrate laminated between layers of a nonwoven conductive fibrous web, preferably of conductive carbon fibers, impregnated with a mixture of carbon particles and a nonfibrous polymeric substance, and optionally with a hydrophobic microporous film or layer disposed on one of the layers of the nonwoven conductive fibrous web as well as the product produced thereby.

Electrochemical cathode and materials therefor

A sheetlike laminated air cathode including first and second layers having opposed major surfaces respectively exposed for contact with a liquid electrolyte and with air, the layers also having facing major surfaces, and the second layer being permeable to air but not to the liquid electrolyte; and a current collector in contact with the first layer and connectable to external electrical circuitry. The first layer is a nonwoven fibrous web impregnated with a mixture of carbon particles and a nonfibrous polymeric substance for holding the carbon particles in the web. The facing major surfaces of the first and second layers are bonded together by heat seal coating material distributed on those major surfaces in such manner as to provide an array or network of areas free of coating material extending substantially uniformly thereover.

Air cathodes and materials therefor

There is disclosed a novel process for the cold stretching at high stretch tension and at low stretch ratios of a film of a blend of synthetic orientable thermoplastic polymer and at least 50 weight percent of a coated inorganic filler selected from the group consisting of calcium carbonate, clays and titanium oxide and coated with a fatty acid ester of silicon and titanium to form a highly porous thermoplastic film (i.e. 10,000 to 100,000 surface ruptures/mm.sup.2) exhibiting paper-like properties.

Process for producing highly porous thermoplastic films

A process for the production of ethanol, useful as a fuel, from various cellulose-containing materials by saccharification, fermentation and distillation of the resultant fermented ethanol-containing beer to recover ethanol; which comprises the formation of a slurry of the material being saccharified by recycling a portion of the resultant fermented ethanol-containing beer back to the incoming material being subjected to saccharification whereby the concentration of ethanol during fermentation and subsequent distillation treatment is substantially increased over that utilizing no recycling treatment, the process being carried out at under normal atmospheric conditions.

Process for making ethanol and fuel product

Tobacco sheet is prepared from high solids aqueous slurries incorporating a reinforcing agent constituted by unrefined short cellulose fiber, having an average length of less than 2.0 mm.

Tobacco sheet reinforced with hardwood pulp

A process for making alcohol from cellulosic material by hydrolyzing the material to sugars and subjecting the resultant reaction mixture to digestion and fermentation to convert the sugars to alcohol. The process comprises sterilization of the cellulosic material; concurrent digestion and fermentation of the sterilized mixture to produce alcohol using innoculum comprising cellulase enzyme and yeast, vacuum stripping to recover the alcohol, and recovery of innoculum for reuse.
