Abstract
Lithium-boron alloy electrochemical properties were determined in some non-aqueous media by a.c. impedance and galvanostatic techniques and compared with pure lithium metal in terms of chargetransfer resistance and exchange current density. The behaviour of lithium-boron alloys with different compositions is correlated with the porosity of the refractory matrix by galvanostatic discharges and a.c. impedance measurements. Cycling tests were also reported for analysing the possibilities of replacing lithium metal by lithium-boron alloy.
