A method includes treating a CFx material with a base during the formation of a CFx cathode; and assembling the treated CFx material into a cathode electrode and assembling the cathode electrode with a lithium anode electrode and an electrolyte into a cell.

Method to stabilize lithium / carbon monofluoride battery during storage

One example includes a battery case sealed to retain electrolyte, an electrode disposed in the battery case, the electrode comprising a current collector formed of a framework defining open areas disposed along three axes ('framework'), the framework electrically conductive, with active material disposed in the open areas; a conductor electrically coupled to the electrode and sealingly extending through the battery case to a terminal disposed on an exterior of the battery case, a further electrode disposed in the battery case, a separator disposed between the electrode and the further electrode and a further terminal disposed on the exterior of the battery case and in electrical communication with the further electrode, with the terminal and the further terminal electrically isolated from one another.

Method of making a carbon monofluoride impregnated current collector including a 3D framework

Carbon monofluoride impregnated current collector including a 3D framework

This document discusses, among other things, a method including providing a laminate having a first conductive layer, a second conductive layer and an insulator between the first and second conductive layers. A hollow conductive via is formed through the insulator, the conductive via electrically connects the first and second conductive layers. At least one conductive trace electrically connects the hollow conductive via to at least one of the first and second conductive layers. The method further includes forming a channel in the insulator adjacent to the hollow conductive via and the channel surrounds the via. Wherein the channel extends at least part way between the first and second conductive layers, the at least one conductive trace bridges the channel, and the via is isolated from the insulator by the surrounding channel formed adjacent to the hollow conductive via. The via is isolated to prevent separation between the hollow conductive via and at least one of the first and second conductive layers, where the insulator is in a swollen condition.

Method of making a thermally isolated via structure

This document discusses, among other things, a flexible circuit or other laminate comprising a first conductive layer and a second conductive layer disposed over the first conductive layer. An insulator is disposed between the first and second conductive layers. A conductive via extends through the insulator and electrically connects the first and second conductive layers. The laminate includes a channel in the insulator. In one option, the channel extends at least part way around the via. In another option, the channel extends at least part way between the first and second conductive layers. In another example, a method comprises providing a laminate including at least first and second conductive layers and an insulator disposed therebetween. A via is formed through the insulator. A channel is formed in the insulator at least part way around the via. The channel extends between the first and second conductive layers.
