NONAQUEOUS CELLS EMPLOYING HEAT-TREATED MNO2 CATHODES

摘要

A nonaqueous cell comprising an active metal anode such as lithium, a manganese dioxide-containing cathode which contains less than 1 weight percent water in the manganese dioxide and a liquid organic electrolyte comprising 3-methyl- 2-oxazolidone in conjunction with a selected solute and optionally a cosolvent having a viscosity lower than that of the 3-methyl-2- oxazolidone.
