摘要：

Lithium-impregnated metal foam anodes (LIMFAs) are fabricated and investigated. The LIMFAs are prepared by the impregnation of lithium into molten-salt-coated nickel metal foam. A single cell with the LIMFA exhibits a specific capacity of 3009 As g(-1). For comparison, a single cell with a LiSi alloy anode is also discharged, demonstrating a specific capacity of 1050 As g(-1). These significant improvements can be attributed to the large amount of lithium impregnated into the metal foam as well as the molten lithium holding capability of the foam. Due to their excellent electrochemical properties, LIMFAs are suitable for use in thermal batteries. (C) 2014 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
