Metal--halogen electrochemical cell. [Zn/Br/sub 2/, Cd/Br/sub 2/]

Patent ·
OSTI ID:5175160
An improved metal--halogen electrochemical cell, particularly, a zinc bromide cell, contains a water-soluble organo substituted amino acid salt in the electrolyte which forms a substantially water-insoluble liquid complex with cathodic halogen, self-discharge of the cell is thereby reduced. 1 figure, 3 tables.
