LITHIUM COMPOUNDS

摘要

This invention relates to lithium compounds composed of a lithium halide and lithium imide. The compounds are high in lithium ionic conductivity and are used as solid electrolytes. Particularly excellent ones of the lithium compounds are those represented by the general formula: yLi2NH.(1-y)LiX where X represents Cl, Br or I and y denotes the molar fraction of lithium imide ranging from about 0.35 to about 0.98 when X is chlorine, from about 0.25 to about 0.35 when X is bromine or from about 0.33 to about 0.75 when X is iodine.
