Cell voltage lithium vanadium pentoxide

Three principal types of lithium organic electrolyte battery are currently available the lithium-thionyl chloride system, the lithium-vanadium pentoxide system and the lithium-sulphur dioxide system. These batteries all have high-rate capabilities. The approximate open-circuit equilibrium cell voltages for these various cathode systems and for some other systems that have been considered are shown in Table 9.2. 

Honeywell have recently developed a high-integrity erimp-sealed lithium-vanadium pentoxide button cell. This has an open-circuit voltage of 3.42 V and a voltage under load of more than 3V. The G3093 model has a rated eapacity of 300mA h and the G3094...
