Abstract

The invention relates to the use in a non-aqueous electrochemical cell of a conductive electrolyte comprising an ionizing solute dissolved in a mixture of a selected halide of an element of Group IV to Group VI of the Periodic Table and a cosolvent. The selected halide serves the dual function of acting as a solvent for the solute and as the active cathode depolarizer of the cell.
