Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A battery includes a housing, and within the housing, an anode having an alkali metal as the active material, a cathode having a mass (m) of a cathode active material, for example, iron disulfide as the active material, a separator between the anode and the cathode, and an increased electrolyte volume (v).
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1 . A battery, comprising a housing, and within the housing: (a) an anode comprising an alkali metal; (b) a cathode comprising a mass (m) of a cathode active material selected from the group consisting of transition metal polysulfides having the formula M1 a M2 b S n , wherein M1 and M2 are transition metals, a+b is at least 1, and n is at least 2(a+b); and (c) a volume (v) of an electrolyte, wherein the electrolyte has an ether content of at least 95 vol % of the electrolyte; and (d) a separator having a porosity between about 37% and about 70% between the anode and the cathode, wherein the battery includes a total pore volume prior to discharge, a void volume that will be generated when the battery is discharged to 1.05 V once, and the volume (v) of the electrolyte is greater than the sum of the total pore volume and the void volume.
