Abstract
An electrochemical device comprises one or more anode, cathode, and separator. In some embodiments, the separator is also an electrolyte. In addition it has two or more current collectors. The anode and cathode are between the two current collectors and each is adhered to an adjacent current collector. The separator is between the anode and cathode and adhered to the anode and cathode. The current collectors are a barrier, and are bonded together to create a sealed container for the anode, cathode, and separator. The electrochemical device may be integrated into a composite panel suitable for uses such as structural load bearing panels or sheets for aircraft wings or fuselage, composite armor, torpedo, missile body, consumer electronics, etc. The electrochemical device may include, but is not limited to, energy storage (batteries, supercapacitors), and energy generation (fuel cells).
