markus.dnd Posted February 14, 2008 Share Posted February 14, 2008 Heya again. Now i am wondering what is in alkaline batterys anode. i know it is gel of Zn and something ... but what might the something be? And could it be dissolved for getting Zn out of it... ? Markus the want to know guy. Edit: By the way. Water and ethanol did not work, least not yet. ( some of it is still outside in 50% ethanol but i dont think it changes anything.)

markus.dnd Posted February 14, 2008 Author Share Posted February 14, 2008 yes i know of the Zn part. but i am interested in what else is there. it is not just Zn it is Zn powder and something that makes it up to a gel. The gel must be for the bigger surface to be connected with the potassium hydroxide. i would like to know what it is, that is added to Zinc powder that makes it in to a gel. (by the way i know how to use Wikipedia and i do use it!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
