ORGANIC DEPOLARIZED CELLS UTILIZING METADINITROBENZENE.

Abstract

The object of the work is to develop and optimize techniques that are readily translatable to production methods for the fabrication of magnesium/magnesium perchlorate/m-dinitrobenzene dry cells in the R(N), A, and D sizes, and to test a quantity of cells so produced. A statistical analysis is presented of the data obtained in the First Factorial Experiment, experimental details of which were reported previously. The results, applicable to A size Mg dry cells made with depolarizer slugs 1.671 inches in height and 0.503 inch in diameter, show that minimal leakage is obtained with the fold-over separator construction and the lower level of wetness (1.75 ml of 1.25M Mg(C1O4)2 per gm of 'practical grade' m-dinitrobenzene, as supplied); but that output is greater at the higher level (2.00 ml per gm). A Second Factorial Experiment is described, one of the purposes of which was to establish whether the inferior performance (greater leakage and somewhat poorer output) which is characteristic of the disk-and-washer separator, when used in conjunction with a slug of the dimensions indicated, is associated with its design at the top or at the botto
