  • Wound thermal batteries and methods of manufacturing the same
    Patent number: 10199658
    Abstract: A thermal battery includes a first conductive layer containing an anode material separated from a second conductive layer containing a cathode material by a separator layer containing a separator material; and a flexible pyrotechnic heat source, wherein the first conductive layer, the separator layer, and the second conductive layer are rolled together to form the spiral wound configuration. A method of manufacturing a thermal spiral wound battery includes preparing three slurries, each containing one of an anode material, a cathode material, and a separator material, depositing each of the materials from the slurries onto conductive substrates to form three layers, stacking the layers, and winding the layers together into a spiral wound configuration.
    Type: Grant

  • High energy density non-aqueous electrochemical cell with extended operating temperature window
    Patent number: 9991493
    Abstract: A non-aqueous electrochemical cell including a lithium anode, a solid cathode, a first separator and a second separator disposed between the anode and the cathode, and an electrolyte in fluid communication with the anode, the cathode, and the first and the second separators, the first separator having a higher melting point (or shut-down) temperature than the melting point (or shut-down) temperature of the second separator.
