HIGH-CAPACITY MAGNESIUM BATTERIES.

摘要

Characteristic data are presented for magnesium/magnesium-perchlorate reserve cells discharged at temperatures as low as -40 F. Cathode efficiency data as a function of temperature and current drain are also presented. Factors affecting the performance of dry cell batteries were investigated. Cathode efficiencies,storage-characteristics,and electrode surface phenomena were evaluated. Data are also presented for a newly-developed magnesium/mercuric-oxide meteorological battery,including discharge data for temperatures as low as -58 F. (Author)
