Primary cells carbon

Electrical Uses. Dry cells (see Batteries, primary cells) use graphite to render the nonconductive pyrolusite (Mn02) conductive through intimate admixture. The degree of graphitization is a factor in that graphites with the same carbon content and from the same locaUty give different results. 

The demand for electrically operated tools or devices that can be handled independently of stationary power sources led to a variety of different battery systems which are chosen depending on the field of application. In the case of rare usage, e.g., for household electric torches or for long-term applications with low current consumption, such as watches or heart pacemakers, primary cells (zinc-carbon, alkaline-manganese or lithium-iodide cells) are chosen. For many applications such as starter batteries in cars, only rechargeable battery systems, e.g., lead accumulators, are reasonable with regard to costs and the environment. 

Whereas PVA fleeces are used only in primary cells polyamide fleeces compete with polyolefin, preferably polypropylene fleeces. The latter are more stable at higher temperatures and do not contribute to electrolyte carbonation, but they wet only after a pretreatment either by fluorination [131] or by coating and crosslinking with hydrophilic substances (e.g., polyacrylic acid [132]) on the surface of the fiber.

The ordinary dry cell (Leclanche cell) is a primary cell that is used in flashlights. In this cell, oxidation occurs at a zinc anode, and reduction at an inert carbon +" cathode (graphite). The space between the cell is filled with a moist paste of Mn02, ZnCl2 and NH CI. The half-reaction at the anode is as follows ... 

The principal features of the electrochemistry and construction of oxygen electrodes in alkaline solution, which were considered in Chapter 3 for primary cells, are common to secondary cells. If air is used rather than oxygen, it is then necessary to scrub the gas to remove carbon dioxide, since otherwise the electrolyte becomes progressively contaminated with carbonate which reduces the conductivity and may block electrode pores. 

A dry cell is the workhorse of primary cells.1 Its familiar cylindrical zinc container serves as the anode and in the center is the cathode, a carbon rod. The interior of the container is lined with paper that serves as the porous barrier. The electrolyte is a moist paste of ammonium chloride, manganese(IV) oxide, finely granulated carbon, and an inert filleq usually... 

The second lithium primary cell is the Li-Mn02 [18]. For use in lithium cells, the high purity EMD must be heat treated at 350°C-375°C to activate and modify the crystal structure, as well as remove any water. Carbon black is used as a conductive diluent in the cathode. The cell electrolyte is propylene carbonate and 1,2-dimethoxyethane with LiAsF6. The cell reaction is... 

Carbone primary cell. This device uses a porous, cup-shaped carbon element as the positive electrode and a zinc ring as the negative. The electrolyte is a caustic-soda solution with a special mineral oil floating on its surface. The oil prevents evaporation of the electrolyte. 

As already stated, the measured electromotive force of a galvanic cell does not necessarily correspond to a single definite reaction. For example, a powerful primary cell may be constructed by placing a porous cup containing a platinum or carbon electrode, surrounded by nitric acid, into another vessel containing an amalgamated zinc electrode in an electrolyte of sulphuric acid. This cell may be represented by... 

Bunsen cell A type of primary cell in which the positive electrode is formed by carbon plates in a nitric acid solution and the negative electrode consists of zinc plates in sulfuric acid solution. 

These cells exhibit the highest energy and power densities down to low temperatures among the primary cells as a consequence of high conductivity, fast-reacting liquid depolarizer, large surface area of carbon electrodes and low temperature coeffi-...
