A separator membrane for use in silver-zinc batteries is produced by extruding a blend of two fillers with the same chemical formula but different particle size. A polyolefine polymer and a plasticizer are blended and extruded to form a thin sheet of 1 to 10 mil thickness. The plasticizer is then extracted to leave submicron voids in the membrane.

A silver zinc battery is a secondary cell that utilizes silver (I,III) oxide and zinc. Silver zinc cells share most of the characteristics of the silver-oxide battery, and in addition, is able to deliver one of the highest specific energies of all presently known electrochemical power sources.
Zinc-silver batteries use metal zinc as negative electrode, silver oxide (AgO, Ag 2 O or a mixture of them) as positive electrode, 22 and KOH or NaOH aqueous solution as electrolyte. The divalent oxide is relatively stable at ambient temperatures but is inclined to degrade to the monovalent state with increasing temperature and time.
As zinc silver batteries are free from flammability problems that plagued the Li-ion batteries because of the usage of water-based electrolyte, they are regaining interests as concerns over safety and environmental impact increase such as printed batteries for stretchable electronics.
Model The schematic of a silver–zinc cell is given in Fig. 1. It features a cathode made of silver–silver (I) oxide–silver (II) oxide (Ag–Ag 2 O–AgO) supported by a silver grid. The silver grid serves as a current collector and it is non-reactive, typically.
These batteries had the advantages of zinc-silver and zinc-air batteries that increased discharge potential and specific capacity of 800 mAh·g Zn−1. After 1700 cycles, the coulomb efficiency remained above 85%. Zinc electrodes are most widely prepared by pressuring, pasting or electrodepositing method.
Improving the thermal stability of silver oxide to at least 15 years and prolong the cycle life are also needed. In addition, effective corrosion inhibitors for composite zinc electrodes or surface treatment of zinc electrodes to reduce self-corrosion and dendrite formation of electrodes needs to be suppressed.
