Spirally wound lithium cupric oxide organic electrolyte cells
The lithium cupric oxide cell has been the subject of research and development within the SAFT group for a number of years. This battery system was characterized by a high energy density, a working voltage identical to those of the conventional Leclanche and alkaline manganese dioxide couples and a very long shelf life in various environmental conditions. Bobbin cells of small sizes (AA, 1/2 AA ...) have been the subject of testing for the past years and results obtained by SAFT and external organisations as well, are continuing to enlarge the body of data on the properties of this couple. For instance, we have demonstrated the ability of such cells to sustain ten year storage at ambient temperature with no appreciable deterioration of their electrical characteristics (3). In the context of higher power larger size cylindrical cells, SAFT have recently introduced C and D cells using spirally wound electrodes. The purpose of this paper is consequently to describe the performances and main features of this new generation of Li/CuO cells.
