β¦ Synopsis
Parts of the surfaces of lithium foils sometimes turn faint-brown or yellow in colour during storage. This phenomenon has been investigated both by ESCA and by X-ray diffraction techniques. The performances of cells having coloured lithium foils have also been examined.
The colouring of the lithium foils has been attributed to optical interference resulting from the formation of very thin oxide layers on the metal surface.

The lithium ionic conductivity of materials prepared by reaction of lithium iodide with anhydrous and hydrated aluminum sulfate has been investigated by a.c. conductivity and n.m.r, techniques. The a.c. measurements indicated thermally activated diffusion with an activation energy of 8.3 kcal/ tool.
