Abstract

A lithium primary battery includes a positive electrode 1 using iron sulfide as a positive electrode active material, a negative electrode 2 using a lithium alloy as a negative electrode active material, an electrode group 4 formed by winding the positive and negative electrodes 1, 2 with a separator 3 being interposed therebetween, and a non-aqueous electrolytic solution. The lithium alloy contains at least one of magnesium or tin in a range of 0.02-0.2 mol %.

Claims (9)

1. A lithium primary battery, comprising:

a positive electrode using iron sulfide as a positive electrode active material;

a negative electrode using a lithium alloy as a negative electrode active material;

an electrode group formed by winding the positive and negative electrodes with a separator being interposed therebetween; and

a non-aqueous electrolytic solution,

wherein the lithium alloy contains at least one of magnesium or tin as an additive, a total amount of the additive being in a range of 0.02-0.2 mol %.

2. The lithium primary battery of claim 1 , wherein the lithium alloy contains at least one of magnesium or tin in a range of 0.10-0.17 mol %.

3. The lithium primary battery of claim 1 , wherein the non-aqueous electrolytic solution contains an electrolyte made of lithium iodide.

4. The lithium primary battery of claim 1 , wherein a solvent of the non-aqueous electrolytic solution contains tetrahydrofuran in a range of 0.5-5 vol %.
