HIGH-ENERGY BATTERY SYSTEM STUDY.
Abstract
A group of new cathode materials was tested in half-cell studies, including Br2, I2O5, BrCN, CrO3, CuS, FeS2, Ca(OCl)2, CsSF5, and others. AgO, MnO2, and CuF2 were investigated further. Discharge curves were generally better in dimethyl sulfoxide than in propylene carbonate. Higher utilization efficiencies were achieved at lowcurrent densities. A lithium/water system was tested and a cell voltage of 2 volts was obtained over a period of 5 hours at a moderate discharge current density. (Author)
