The Exxon rechargeable cells
The design and performance of ambient temperature secondary cells based on the titanium disulfide cathode are discussed. These limited performance products were developed for microelectronic applications such as solar rechargeable watches and clocks which require low drain rate and do not require many deep cycles
Improved operation of rechargeable oxygen electrodes
Procedure for enhancing operating life and performance of oxygen electrodes in rechargeable metal-oxygen batteries and hydrogen-oxygen fuel cells is discussed. Accumulation of refractory anodic oxide layer and inhibiting effects on oxygen reduction are described. Improvements in service life of batteries by following procedure are explained
