Abstract: There is provided non-aqueous organic electrolytic solution for a lithium primary battery which can be stored for long period at elevated temperatures or at the end stage of discharge. Non-aqueous organic electrolytic solution 20 for lithium primary battery 1 having a cathode active material which is manganese dioxide and an anode active material which is either of lithium or lithium alloy includes a base electrolytic solution that is composed of organic solvent and supporting electrolyte and to which either one of hydroxyphthalimide or hydroxyphthalimide derivative is added as an additive. An amount of the additive which is added to the base electrolytic solution is 0.1 wt % or more and 5.0 wt % or less. It is more preferable that the amount of the additive which is added to the base electrolytic solution is 0.1 wt % or more and 1.0 wt % or less.

Abstract: A positive electrode active material for a nonaqueous electrolyte battery. The positive electrode active material has been manufactured through a mixing step and a heating step. In the mixing step, a mixture is produced by mixing niobium pentoxide (Nb2O5) with lithium hydroxide (LiOH) at a molar ratio of 1:1. In the heating step, the mixture is heated in an atmosphere of air at substantially 800° C. The positive electrode active material having been produced through the mixing process and the heating process causes the plateau potential in a discharge to be approximately 1.0 [V] for lithium. And the nonaqueous electrolyte battery using the positive electrode active material can operate at a voltage of approximately 1.0 [V].

Abstract: A non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery uses, as its positive electrode or negative electrode, an electrode containing an active material and a conductive agent, the active material being made of a mixture of a molybdenum dioxide and a lithium titanium oxide in a weight ratio (molybdenum dioxide: lithium titanium oxide) of from 90:10 to 50:50, and the conductive agent containing graphitized vapor grown carbon fiber and massive graphite. The massive graphite has an average particle size of 10 ?m or greater.

Abstract: A lithium cell has a positive electrode, a negative electrode having lithium, a separator interposed between the positive electrode and the negative electrode, and a non-aqueous electrolytic solution containing a solute and a non-aqueous solvent. The non-aqueous solvent has a main component of one or more than one compound represented by the following general formula (1): X—(O—C2H4)n-O—Y (where X and Y are independently a methyl group or an ethyl group, and n is 2 or 3). The main component is 90 to 100% in volume of the non-aqueous solvent. The separator has a melting point of higher than 150° C. The lithium cell with the above construction does not impair heat resistant safety and electrochemical characteristics such as discharging characteristics even in severe environments of high temperature, and enhances its long period reliability.
