    摘要: Disclosed is a flat lithium primary battery including a case, a positive electrode, a negative electrode, a separator, and a nonaqueous electrolyte, in which the positive electrode, the negative electrode, the separator, and the nonaqueous electrolyte are disposed in the case. The positive electrode includes: a positive electrode active material; and a fluorocarbon resin with swellability in the nonaqueous electrolyte. In the positive electrode, the fluorocarbon resin is present in particulate form. When, on the flat lithium primary battery having been put in an environment with a temperature of 25° C., a high temperature storage test to store the flat lithium primary battery in an environment with a temperature of 125° C. for 100 hours is conducted, the ratio d2/d1 of a particle diameter d2 of the fluorocarbon resin after the high temperature storage test to a particle diameter d1 of the fluorocarbon resin before the high temperature storage test is 1.5 or higher and 3.1 or lower.

    摘要: A redox flow battery is described that does not include an ion exchange resin such as a proton exchange membrane but rather uses a generally stationary separator liquid that separates the anolyte from the catholyte at immiscible liquid-liquid interfaces. Solvents and electrochemically active components of the anolyte and catholyte would not cross the liquid-liquid interfaces between the separator liquid and the anolyte and catholyte, but certain ions in each of the anolyte and catholyte would cross the interface during charging and discharging of the redox flow battery. The separator liquid comprises a relatively small total volume of liquid in such a flow battery arrangement as compared to the anolyte and catholyte. Suitable chemical options are described along with system options for utilizing immiscible phases.

    摘要: A wound battery includes an electrode assembly in which a first electrode and a second electrode are wound together via a separator, the electrode assembly being accommodated in a battery case including a bottomed tube-shaped metallic can. The first electrode has a first uncoated region defined by an exposed portion of a first current collector sheet at an end of the first current collector sheet in the axial direction of winding. The first electrode includes a first current collector lead connected to the first uncoated region. The first uncoated region is disposed on the same side as the open end of the metallic can. The second electrode includes a second current collector lead connected thereto. The first and the second current collector leads extend toward the open end of the metallic can. At least a portion of the first uncoated region is covered with an insulating layer, and the insulating layer extends beyond an end face of the first uncoated region.

    摘要: In accordance with at least selected embodiments, novel or improved porous membranes or substrates, separator membranes, separators, composites, electrochemical devices, batteries, methods of making such membranes or substrates, separators, and/or batteries, and/or methods of using such membranes or substrates, separators and/or batteries are disclosed. In accordance with at least certain embodiments, novel or improved microporous membranes, battery separator membranes, separators, energy storage devices, batteries including such separators, methods of making such membranes, separators, and/or batteries, and/or methods of using such membranes, separators and/or batteries are disclosed. In accordance with at least certain selected embodiments, a separator for a battery which has an oxidation protective and binder-free deposition layer which is stable up to 5.2 volts or more, for example, up to 7 volts, in a battery is disclosed. The deposition layer is preferably a thin, very thin or ultra-thin deposition on a polymeric microporous membrane applied via a binder-free and solvent-free deposition method. By employing such an ultra-thin deposition layer, the energy density of a battery may be increased. In accordance with at least particular embodiments, the battery separator membrane described herein is directed to a multi-layer or composite microporous membrane battery separator which may have excellent oxidation resistance and may be stable in a high voltage battery system up to 5.2 volts or more. In accordance with at least other certain selected embodiments, the present invention is directed to a separator for a battery which has a conductive deposition layer which is stable up to at least 5.2 volts or higher in a battery.
