    Abstract: Provided is pouch battery including an electrode assembly, and a case in which the electrode assembly is sealed and housed; the electrode assembly including a stacked structure of a sheet cathode, a sheet separator, and a sheet anode; the sheet cathode including a positive electrode active material disposed on a current collector; the sheet anode is thin conductive sheet on which lithium metal reversibly deposits on a surface thereof during discharging; the sheet anode being made of a conductive material other than lithium and having a surface substantially free from lithium metal prior to charging the battery. The pouch battery design is flexible and lightweight and provides high power density, making it a suitable replacement for conventional lithium-ion primary batteries and thermal batteries in many applications. Power can be further increased by the application of external compression. Additives and formation conditions can be tailored for forming a solid-electrolyte interface (SEI).

    Abstract: Provided is a battery that may include a first terminal or cable, a second terminal or a cable, a thermal fuse configured to connect to the first terminal or cable and the second terminal or cable, a first sleeving layer that is disposed on the thermal fuse, and that is configured to muffle an arc explosion of the thermal fuse and encapsulate molten material generated by the arc explosion of the thermal fuse, and a second sleeving layer that is disposed on the first sleeving layer, and that is configured to encapsulate the molten material generated by the arc explosion of the thermal fuse that penetrates the first sleeving layer. An overcurrent protection system and a sleeving are also provided.
