Silver, copper and other oxosalts have been extensively studied as cathodes in laboratory cells commercial power sources, principally for pacemakers, using silver chromate were manufactured until the 1980s, and silver vanadate or silver vanadium oxide (Ag2V4On), first reported by workers at Wilson Greatbatch Ltd, is currently used as cathode in implantable cardiac defibrillator batteries. [Pg.121]

The goal of these and other researchers was to develop a totally implantable pacemaker. Bioengineer Wilson Greatbatch and heart surgeon William Chardack achieved this milestone with their first successfiil human implant in 1960. Greatbatch used then-novel transistors and an epoxy-encased Ruben-Mallory zinc mercuric oxide battery in his design. [5]... [Pg.423]

In 1998, Wilson Greatbatch Technologies found that chain sulfates, such as dial-lyl sulfate (45) and benzyl methyl sulfate (46), as well as chain sulfates including silyl groups, such as bis(trimethylsilyl) sulfate (47), can be used as additives in small quantities [76],... [Pg.179]

In 1998, Wilson Greatbatch Technologies discovered that phosphates with unsaturated bonds, such as triaUyl phosphate (67) and tripropargyl phosphate (68),... [Pg.181]

In 1990, Sony Corporation found that the amides IV-methylpyrrolidone (72) and MAi-dimethylacetamide (73) can be used as additives in small quantities [99], and in 1995, Wilson Greatbatch Technologies found that the imides bis(Af-succinimidyl) carbonate (74) and benzyl Ai-succinimidyl carbonate (75) can be used as additives in small quantities [100]. In 1997, Fujitsu and Ube Industries, Ltd. found that Ai-hydroxysuccinimide (76) can be used as an additive in small quantities [ 101 ], and Sanyo Electric Company discovered that cyclic imides such as succinimide (77) and maleimide (78) can also be used as additives in small quantities in 1997 and 1998, respectively [102,103]. [Pg.182]

Solid state primary batteries can provide very long-life operation at low currents. The first example of such an application is the lithium-iodide solid state battery for cardiac pacemakers which is manufactured in the US by Catalyst Research Co., by Wilson Greatbatch, and by Medtronic Inc. The second example is lithium-glass battery, whose application envisaged is mainly as a power source for electronic computers, such as C-MOS memory backup. Cells commercially available are design XR2025HT by the Union Carbide group. [Pg.380]
