Abstract
The discharge characteristics of a thermally activated battery element with cathode materials based on CrCl3–MoO3 mixtures are studied. The composition and the morphology of the products of reduction of the cathode materials are determined. A mechanism is proposed for their reduction to metallic chromium and molybdenum through an intermediate stage of formation of the melts of the complex Li3CrCl6 compound and lithium molybdates with lithium chloride.
