Title:
BATTERY
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JPS5626371
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
An electrochemical cell comprising an anode of a metal above hydrogen in the electromotive series and which is electrochemically oxidizable to form metal ions in the cell upon discharge such as alkali metals and alkaline earth metals, a cathode of electronically conductive material such as carbon, and an ionic conductive electrolytic solution operatively associated with the anode and cathode and comprising a halogen and/or interhalogen dissolved in a non-aqueous solvent, the halogen and/or interhalogen serving as a soluble depolarizer and as a cosolvent in the cell. The non- aqueous solvent can be an organic solvent which is substantially inert to the material of the anode and cathode or the solvent can be an inorganic solvent which serves as both a solvent and as a depolarizer in the cell eg a selenium oxychloride and bromine solution. A metal salt can be dissolved in the electrolytic solution to enhance the ionic conduction thereof.
