`
`PREFACE
`
`Since the publication of the second edition of the Handbook of Batteries in 1995, the
`battery industry has grown remarkedly. This growth has been due to the broad increase in
`the use of battery-operated portable electronics and the renewed interest in low- or zero-
`emission vehicles and other emerging applications with requirements that can best be met
`with batteries. Annual worldwide battery sales currently are about $50 billion, more than
`double the sales of a decade ago.
`This growth and the demand for batteries meeting increasingly stringent performance
`requirements have been a challenge to the battery industry. The theoretical and practical
`limits of battery technology can be a barrier to meeting some performance requirements.
`Batteries are also cited as the limiting factor for achieving the application’s desired service
`life. Nevertheless, substantial advances have been made both with improvement of the per-
`formance of the conventional battery systems and the development of new battery systems.
`These advances have been covered by significant revisions and updating of each of the
`appropriate chapters in this third edition of the Handbook.
`Recent emphasis on the performance of the primary alkaline manganese dioxide battery
`has been directed toward improving its high-rate performance to meet the requirements of
`the new digital cameras and other portable electronics. The new high-rate (Ultra or Premium)
`battery was first sold in 2000 and already commands about 25% of the market.
`The lithium primary battery continues its steady growth, dominating the camera market
`and applications requiring high power and performance over long periods of time. It now
`accounts for over $1 billion in annual sales.
`Development has been most active in the area of portable rechargeable batteries to meet
`the needs of the rapidly growing portable electronics market. The portable nickel-metal
`hydride battery, which was becoming the dominant rechargeable battery replacing the nickel-
`cadmium battery, is itself being replaced by the newer lithium-ion battery. Recognizing the
`significance of this new technology, a new chapter, Chapter 35 ‘‘Lithium-ion Batteries,’’ has
`been added to the third edition of the Handbook.
`The revived interest in electric vehicles, hybrid electric vehicles, and energy storage sys-
`tems for utilities has accelerated the development of larger-sized rechargeable batteries. Be-
`cause of the low specific energy of lead-acid batteries and the still unresolved problems with
`the high temperature batteries, the nickel-metal hydride battery is currently the battery system
`of choice for hybrid electric vehicles. This subject is covered in another new chapter, Chapter
`30 ‘‘Propulsion and Industrial Nickel-Metal Hydride Batteries.’’
`The inherent high energy conversion efficiency and the renewed interest in fuel cell tech-
`nology for electric vehicles has encouraged the development of small subkilowatt fuel cell
`power units and portable fuel cells as potential replacements for batteries. Because of this
`new interest, Part 6 ‘‘Portable Fuel Cells’’ has been added that includes two new chapters,
`Chapters 42 and 43, covering portable fuel cells and small subkilowatt fuel cells, respectively.
`Large fuel cells are beyond the scope of this third edition of the Handbook. Much information
`has been published about this subject; see references listed in Appendix F.
`Several editorial changes have been instituted in the preparation of this edition of the
`Handbook. The term ‘‘specific energy’’ is now used in place of gravimetric energy density

`
`(e.g., Wh/kg). The term ‘‘energy density’’ now refers to volumetric energy density (Wh/L).
`Similarly, ‘‘specific power’’ (W/kg) and power density (W/L) refer to power per unit weight
`and volume, respectively.
`Another point that has been defined more clearly in this edition is the distinction between
`a ‘‘cell’’ and a ‘‘battery.’’ Manufacturers most commonly identify the product they offer for
`sale as a ‘‘battery’’ regardless of whether it is a single-cell battery or a multicell one. Ac-
`cordingly, we have defined the cell as ‘‘the basic electrochemical unit providing a source of
`electrical energy by direct conversion of chemical energy. The cell consists of an assembly
`of electrodes, separators, electrolyte, container, and terminals.’’ The battery is defined as ‘‘the
`complete product and consists of one or more electrochemical cells, electrically connected
`in an appropriate series/parallel arrangement to provide the required operating voltage and
`current levels, including, if any, monitors, controls and other ancillary components (e.g.,
`fuses, diodes, case, terminals, and markings).’’
`In this edition, the term ‘‘cell’’ has been used, almost universally by all of the authors,
`when describing the cell components of the battery and its chemistry. Constructional features
`have been described as either cells, batteries, or configurations depending on the particular
`choice of the author. This has not been uniformly edited, as it does not appear to cause any
`confusion. The term ‘‘battery’’ has been generally used when presenting the performance
`characteristics of the product. Usually the data is presented on the basis of a single-cell
`battery, recognizing that the performance of a multicell battery could be different, depending
`on its design. In some instances, in order not to mislead the reader relative to the performance
`of the final battery product, some data (particularly in Chapter 35 on lithium-ion batteries
`and in the chapters in Part 5 on advanced batteries) is presented on a ‘‘cell’’ basis as hard-
`ware, thermal controls, safety devices, etc., that may ultimately be added to the battery (and
`have not been included in the cell) would have a significant impact on performance.
`This third edition of the Handbook of Batteries has now grown to over 1400 pages,
`recognizing the broad scope of battery technology and the wide range of battery applications.
`This work would not have been possible without the interest and contributions of more than
`eighty battery scientists and engineers who participated in its preparation. Their cooperation
`is gratefully acknowledged, as well as the companies and agencies who supported these
`contributing authors.
`We also acknowledge the efforts of Stephen S. Chapman, Executive Editor, Professional
`Book Group, McGraw-Hill Companies for initiating this project and the McGraw-Hill staff,
`and Lois Kisch, Tom Reddy’s secretary, for their assistance toward its completion. We further
`wish to express out thanks to our wives, Rose Linden and Mary Ellen Scarborough, for their
`encouragement and support and to Mary Ellen for the editorial assistance she provided.

`
`1.1 COMPONENTS OF CELLS AND BATTERIES
`
`A battery is a device that converts the chemical energy contained in its active materials
`directly into electric energy by means of an electrochemical oxidation-reduction (redox)
`reaction. In the case of a rechargeable system, the battery is recharged by a reversal of the
`process. This type of reaction involves the transfer of electrons from one material to another
`through an electric circuit. In a nonelectrochemical redox reaction, such as rusting or burning,
`the transfer of electrons occurs directly and only heat is involved. As the battery electro-
`chemically converts chemical energy into electric energy, it is not subject, as are combustion
`or heat engines, to the limitations of the Carnot cycle dictated by the second law of ther-
`modynamics. Batteries, therefore, are capable of having higher energy conversion efficien-
`cies.
`While the term ‘‘battery’’ is often used, the basic electrochemical unit being referred to
`is the ‘‘cell.’’ A battery consists of one or more of these cells, connected in series or parallel,
`or both, depending on the desired output voltage and capacity.*
`The cell consists of three major components:
`1. The anode or negative electrode—the reducing or fuel electrode—which gives up elec-
`trons to the external circuit and is oxidized during the electrochemical reaction.
`2. The cathode or positive electrode—the oxidizing electrode—which accepts electrons from
`the external circuit and is reduced during the electrochemical reaction.
`
`*Cell vs. Battery: A cell is the basic electrochemical unit providing a source of electrical
`energy by direct conversion of chemical energy. The cell consists of an assembly of elec-
`trodes, separators, electrolyte, container and terminals. A battery consists of one or more
`electrochemical cells, electrically connected in an appropriate series/parallel arrangement to
`provide the required operating voltage and current levels, including, if any, monitors, controls
`and other ancillary components (e.g. fuses, diodes), case, terminals and markings. (Although
`much less popular, in some publications, the term ‘‘battery’’ is considered to contain two or
`more cells.)
`Popular usage considers the ‘‘battery’’ and not the ‘‘cell’’ to be the product that is sold
`or provided to the ‘‘user.’’ In this 3rd Edition, the term ‘‘cell’’ will be used when describing
`the cell component of the battery and its chemistry. The term ‘‘battery’’ will be used when
`presenting performance characteristics, etc. of the product. Most often, the electrical data is
`presented on the basis of a single-cell battery. The performance of a multicell battery will
`usually be different than the performance of the individual cells or a single-cell battery (see
`Section 3.2.13).

`3. The electrolyte—the ionic conductor—which provides the medium for transfer of charge,
`as ions, inside the cell between the anode and cathode. The electrolyte is typically a
`liquid, such as water or other solvents, with dissolved salts, acids, or alkalis to impart
`ionic conductivity. Some batteries use soli
