Lithium Battery Systems: Examination of the Iodine Pentoxide Cathode,

reportActive / Technical Report | Accession Number: ADA041739 | Open PDF

Abstract:

The electrochemical system lithium-iodine pentoxide, attractive because of its high theoretical energy density, was investigated, employing as electrolyte a variety of salts dissolved in polar organic solvents. Iodine pentoxide blended with graphite and pressed on an expanded silver grid served as cathode the anodes were made by pressing lithium ribbon onto an expanded nickel grid.
