<p>In an electric power generating element, either positive or negative electrode (1 or 2) includes a composition containing an organic compound as a main agent and the positive electrode (1) has an electrically conductive substance so that relatively low-temperature thermal energy is efficiently converted to electric energy. Polyethylene glycol is employed as the organic compound and graphite or a graphite composition is employed as the conductive substance. Salt providing ionic conductivity may be added to the organic compound or polyethylene glycol, and the negative electrode (2) may be formed of a metal having an ionization tendency as large as or larger than copper or a composition of the metal. <IMAGE></p> |
