Lithium/iron sulfide batteries for electric-vehicle propulsion and other applications
Abstract
The development of lithium/iron sulfide batteries is described. The electrochemical and materials aspects of lithium alloy negative electrodes and iron sulfide positive electrodes, materials cell design, fabricated cells were examined. Alternatives to the present Li-Al and FeS electrodes which are expected to lead to higher specific energy and power investigations concerned with Li-Si, Li-Al-Si, Li-Al-Fe, are emphasized. Development work consisted of cell design improvements to increase lifetime and specific power and the fabrication of cells for testing.
