          Appeal No. 95-1827                                                          
          Application 07/816,157                                                      


          the electrodes (specification, page 4, lines 22-31, page 8,                 
          lines 31-36, and Figure 4).  We see no difference between the               
          type of subject matter here claimed and claims presented to a               
          battery containing an electrolyte (for example, see Class                   
          429/subclass 188 in the PTO Manual of Classification).                      
               For the foregoing reasons, we conclude that the examiner               
          has failed to show that all of the limitations of appealed                  
          claim 23 are disclosed or suggested by Stillman.  Accordingly,              
          the rejection of claims 23, 24, 32, and 33 under 35 U.S.C. §§               
          102(a) and (b) as anticipated by or, in the alternative, under              
          35 U.S.C. § 103 as unpatentable over Stillman is reversed.                  
          REVERSED                                                                    
















                                          11
