Abstract :
To the Board of Directors: The Committee on Electrochemistry and Electrometallurgy makes its annual report as follows: About two years ago, this committee brought to the attention of the Standards Committee the desirability of revising the Institute Standards for storage batteries. A special working committee was then appointed to undertake this task and a tentative standard has been formulated defining the terms and conditions which characterize the rating and behavior of storage batteries. This report is now in the hands of the Standards Committee. It is believed that the work accomplished at the suggestion of this committee will be of value to the storage battery industry, which is an important unit in the electrochemical field.
