Abstract
A lithium-iodine cell comprising a pair of cup-shaped container elements each having a peripheral flange and each containing a lithium anode element and iodine-containing cathode material. The container elements are of material which is heat sealable and which does not exhibit electronic conduction when exposed to iodine. The container elements are juxtaposed with the cathode material of each container being in operative contact with a cathode current collector, and the peripheral flanges of the container elements are heat sealed together. The cell is encapsulated in potting material which is non-reactive with iodine, and the encapsulated cell is contained in an hermetically sealed metal casing having rounded surfaces.
