Title:
POROUS METAL BODY, METHOD FOR PRODUCING SAME, AND MOLTEN SALT BATTERY
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2012/049991
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The objective of the present invention is to provide: an aluminum-made porous metal body having a three-dimensional mesh structure as a porous metal body suitable for use as an electrode of a molten salt battery; a method for producing the porous metal body; and a molten salt battery using same. The porous metal body has a three-dimensional mesh structure formed by a hollow framework. The porous metal body is made such that: the hollow framework is formed of an aluminum layer having a thickness of from 1 µm to 100 µm; and the aluminum layer has a tin layer on each of the inner and outer surfaces thereof. The porous metal body is produced by: an inner-tin-layer forming step of forming a tin layer on the surface of a resin-formed article having a three-dimensional mesh structure; an aluminum-framework forming step of forming an aluminum layer on the surface of the inner tin layer; an outer-tin-layer forming step of forming a tin layer on the surface of the aluminum framework; and a resin removal step of removing the resin-formed article after the aluminum-framework forming step or after the outer-tin-layer forming step.
