Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

In accordance with at least selected embodiments or aspects, the present invention is directed to improved, unique, and/or high performance ISS lead acid battery separators, such as improved ISS flooded lead acid battery separators, ISS batteries including such separators, methods of production, and/or methods of use. The preferred ISS separator may include negative cross ribs and/or PIMS minerals. In accordance with more particular embodiments or examples, a PIMS mineral (preferably fish meal, a bio-mineral) is provided as at least a partial substitution for the silica filler component in a silica filled lead acid battery separator (preferably a polyethylene/silica separator formulation). In accordance with at least selected embodiments, the present invention is directed to new or improved batteries, separators, components, and/or compositions having heavy metal removal capabilities and/or methods of manufacture and/or methods of use thereof.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. An ISS battery separator having negative cross ribs, a silica to polymer ratio from greater than 3:1 to 5:1, latex, or rubber, wherein fish bone powder is added as a substitute for a portion of the silica at a substitution level from 1% to 20% of the silica or ground fish meal is added as a substitute for a portion of the silica at a substitution level from 5% to 30% of the silica. 2. The ISS battery separator of claim 1 , having both fish bone powder and ground fish meal. 3. The ISS battery separator of claim 2 , wherein the polymer is polyethylene. 4. In a flooded lead acid battery, the improvement comprising the ISS battery separator of claim 1 . 5. In an ISS electrical system, the improvement comprising the battery of claim 4 .
