Abstract: The present invention provides a packaging device which allows for expulsion or delivery of its contents by means of the user's breath. The contents to be expelled are either pre-packaged, or else loaded from the front end (i.e., chewing gum, sugar sprinkles and other candy, confetti, beads, as well as fine powdered incense/fragrances and the like). The objects or contents may be launched into the air by blowing into the back of the tube, much like a pea-shooter. There are three primary features that distinguish it from a traditional pea-shooter. First, the objects are loaded from the front. Second, there is a barrier built in that prevents the contents from going the wrong way. Third, perforated sections are created at the “mouth” end, whereby the used end piece can be easily torn away by the previous user in order to create a fresh mouthpiece for the next user.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to a zinc halogen battery electrolyte composition containing an additive providing increased battery capacity. The improved electrolyte composition involves the use of a bismuth additive to inhibit undesirable irregular plating and reduce nodular or dendritic growth on the zinc electrode.

Abstract: A primary electrochemical cell comprising a lithium anode and iodine monochloride as the cathode-electrolyte.

Abstract: A primary electrochemical cell comprising a lithium anode, an iodine trichloride cathode, and a non-aqueous electrolyte. The non-aqueous electrolyte preferably comprises thionyl chloride with additives of iodine monochloride, lithium aluminum chloride, or mixtures thereof. Thionyl bromide may be substituted for the thionyl chloride.
