A method for producing such a battery paste and a delivery system for adding the additives that are added into the paste is also disclosed. The method comprises charging a part of the water and a part of the special composition glass fibers desired in the paste to a mechanical mixer, mixing the water and fibers, adding the lead oxide or oxides desired in the paste to the mixer, mixing the water, glass fibers and lead oxide or oxides until essentially all of the free water in the mixer has been mixed with the lead oxide or oxides, adding the rest of the water required to moisten the paste to the desired consistency and the sulfuric acid required to form the lead oxide sulfate or sulfates, and mixing the paste. The delivery system is the charging to a paste batch of a glass fiber mat that has been impregnated with the other required additives in such a proportion that a certain size/weight of the mat provides all the additional ingredients.

The partially expandable, or extensible nonwoven layer has at least one first portion with limited extensibility in a first direction and at least one second inextensible portion in the first direction. The extensible elastic tab when stretched to the extension limit of the first portion or portions in the first direction will elastically recover at least 1.0 cm, preferably at least 2 cm providing an elastic tab having a Useful Stretch Ratio (as defined in the Examples) of at least 30 percent. The Useful Stretch Ratio includes the portion of the elastic recovery length having an elastic recovery force of greater than 20 grams/cm force, but below a given extension which generally is 90 percent of the extension limit. Further the elastic tab in the region of the Useful Stretch Ratio preferably has an incremental extension force of less than about 300 grams/cm. The invention tab provides definable predictable elastic performance and is useful as a fastening tab used to join to surfaces requiring elastic engagement, particularly a person or animal. The tab is particularly useful as a diaper fastening tab. ng a plurality of support knobs; each of the support knobs having a lower surface; the lower surfaces of the support knobs being adapted to engage the floor; and a clip adapted to hold the floor mat to the floor; the clip engaging the floor mat; the clip defining at least one hole; one of the support knobs of the floor mat being at least partially positioned in the hole. 4.
