Abstract
Electrodes including bipolar composite electrodes and end electrodes are characterized by a layer of electrochemically active material bonded to a first surface of a non-conductive electrode substrate material. In the case of a bipolar electrode, the opposing second surface of the substrate material also carries a layer of electrically active material, the layer of electrochemically active material contacting through said substrate material to provide a current pathway. In the case of an end electrode, the opposing second surface of the substrate material carries a layer of electrically active material, the layer of electrochemically active material contacting the layer of electrically active material through the substrate material to provide a current pathway. Processes of preparing the electrodes and uses of the electrodes in batteries are also disclosed.
