High energy-density electrochemical cell.

摘要

An electrochemical cell has a metallic anode, a cathode/electrolyte having a salt of the anode metal dissolved therein and means electrochemically compling the anode and cathode/electrolyte, the cathode/electrolyte comprising an electrolyte solvent selected from aprotic inorganic liquid oxides, liquid halides and liquid oxyhalides, and an interhalogen having a discharge potential higher than that of the electrolyte solvent.
