Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A method of producing a button cell having an anode including metal particles, including providing an anode mixture including as constituents metal particles, at least one binder, at least one conducting agent and, optionally, a gassing inhibitor, providing a button cell housing, introducing the mixture into the button cell housing, admixing the mixture with an electrolyte, and liquid-tight sealing of the housing, wherein the constituents of the mixture are contacted in the presence of water prior to introduction into the housing, and after the contacting the water is removed from the mixture at least partially.

First claim
