Abstract A pelletized LiAl-FeS battery employing an immobilized LiCl-KCl electrolyte has been tested under various operating regimes. The ampere-hour capacity of cells was found to be inversely proportional to discharge rate. This behaviour has been interpreted in terms of electrolyte phase separation in regions near to the surface of the iron sulphide electrode. Further evidence was provided by the temperature dependence of active materials utilization. Close agreement was obtained between predicted results and experimental data.
