Abstract
A novel anode for a zinc battery is proposed, in which zinc is provided as a coat of zinc powder onto a tin substrate, which is in turn laid over a copper substrate for a current collector. Alternatively, the coat of zinc powder is laid over titanium as the current collector. Such configurations mitigate zinc corrosion and hydrogen production.
