Electrolyte Additive for Lithium Rechargeable Organic Electrolyte Battery.

Abstract

The invention relates in general to a rechargeable lithium organic electrolyte battery and in particular to an electrolyte additive for such a battery that provides overcharge protection. Rechargeable lithium-organic electrolyte batteries are being developed to provide low cost, high energy density power sources for communication, night vision and various other army applications. Typically, a rechargeable lithium organic electrolyte battery includes a lithium anode, a cathode including compounds such as titanium disulfide, molybdenum oxide, molybdenum sulfide, vanadium oxide, vanadium sulfide, chromium oxide, etc an electrolyte solution including an inorganic lithium salt such as lithium hexafluoroarsenate, lithium perchlorate, etc.
