Abstract
This disclosure is directed to strengthening carbon-black particulate "Teflon" (PTFE) mixes destined to be formed into active layers in air cathodes, which comprises mixing an aqueous dispersion of particulate polytetrafluoroethylene with an aqueous suspension of particulate carbon-black; washing and drying; mixing with a pore-forming agent; fibrillating said mixtures; washing and drying; adding polytetrafluoroethylene fibers while chopping said dried fibrillated mixture and thereafter forming said chopped mixture into a sheet, which was washed and dried.
