Abstract: A general purpose organic electrolyte cell usable for long-periods or usable after long periods of storage even in a high temperature environment exceeding 150.degree. C. The positive and the negative electrodes are separated by using a separator made of porous synthetic resin sheet having a melting point of at least 170.degree. C.

Abstract: A general purpose organic electrolyte cell usable for long-periods or usable after long periods of storage even in a high temperature environment exceeding 150.degree. C. The positive and the negative electrodes are separated by using a separator made of porous synthetic resin sheet having a melting point of at least 170.degree. C., and a gasket made of thermoplastic resin having a continuous usable temperature of at least 150.degree. C. on which a sealant layer made mainly of blown-asphalt is disposed.

Abstract: The present invention provides a general purpose non-aqueous electrolyte cell of high performance, capable of long-term use and/or storage even in high-temperature environments by separating the positive and the negative electrodes with a separator. The separator is made of glass-fiber non-woven cloth having a defined fiber diameter, fiber weight per unit area, and average pore size. The present invention also provides a gasket made of polyphenylene sulfide resin only or substantially of polyphenylene sulfide on which a sealant layer made substantially of blown asphalt is disposed.
