Impedance spectroscopy was evaluated as a method for ascertaining the state of constituent components of Li-thionyl chloride cells. No unambiguous correlation between impedance characteristics and residual capacity was detected as a result of investigation of a large population of different size and capacity Li-thionyl chloride cells. Impedance studies of nonpolarized lithium electrodes in operating cells resulted in a conclusion that the diagnostics of Li-thionyl chloride cells is extremely difficult, due to the specific nature of lithium passivation in operating cells and the influence on this process exerted by sulfur dioxide generated during discharge.
