Thermal batteries are widely used as the power sources in the field of aerospace and military applications, due to their high-power d. and long storage life. Compared to the cubic transition metal disulfides, another hexagonal metal disulfide SnS2, is studied as a new cathode of thermal batteries. SnS2 exhibits good environmental and thermal stability, high electronic conductivity, good wettability, as well as high discharge voltage and rate capability. Its working voltage reaches 2.23 V under discharge current of 100 mA cm-2. During the discharge process, three distinct discharge steps are existed at a cut-off voltage of 1.5 V, as described followed: 1) 2SnS2 + 2Li+ + 2e- = Sn2S3 + Li2S; 2) Sn2S3 + 2Li+ + 2e- = 2SnS + Li2S; 3) SnS + 2Li+ + 2e- = Sn + Li2S. In conclusions, SnS2 is proved a most promising cathode material for thermal batteries, and can be widely used. This study involved multiple reactions and reactants, such as Lithium chloride (cas: 7447-41-8Reference of 7447-41-8).
Lithium chloride (cas: 7447-41-8) belongs to organic chlorides. An organic chloride is an organic compound containing at least one covalently bonded atom of chlorine. Their wide structural variety and divergent chemical properties lead to a broad range of names and applications. Organochlorine compounds are lipophylic, meaning they are more soluble in fat than in water. This gives them a high tenancy to accumulate in the food chain (biomagnification).Reference of 7447-41-8
