Abstract
An anode for use in an electrochemical cell, wherein the electrochemical cell includes a metallic casing, an electrolyte, a cathode, and an anode within the metallic casing. The anode comprises at least one perforated electrochemical zinc based sheet conductively attached to the metallic casing. A process for fabricating an electrochemical cell comprises the steps of fabricating an anode having at least one perforated electrochemical zinc based sheet conductively attached to a casing, associating a cathode with the electrochemical cell, associating an insulating microporous separator between the anode and cathode, and introducing an alkaline electrolyte to the anode and cathode through the microporous separator.
