Abstract
A double layer structure for use as a capacitor or battery electrode, for use in other electrochemical systems, includes in one embodiment a first layer containing conductive transition metal oxides and a second layer which includes conductive carbon embedded in a suitable binder. For capacitor and lead-acid battery applications the transition metal containing material is used as the negative terminal substrate. Another embodiment includes a carbon layer on an electrode surface, the electrode being made from the transition metal oxide in a binder. The last mentioned carbon layer is thin, inexpensive and more conductive than a laminate layer in which the carbon is imbedded in a self-supporting binder.
