Thermal cell research originated in Germany in the early 1940s. However, its development into useable batteries was not achieved until 1947 when the first models were manufactured in the United States for Harry Diamond Laboratories (then U.S. Bureau of Standards). These were developed for use on military ordinance weapons and have been widely used on projectiles, rockets, bombs, mines, decoys, jammers, and torpedoes. Also, they have been used on automated aircraft crew eject seats; at Argonne National Laboratories, significant research was conducted on the potential use of molten salt electrolytes for electric vehicles and off-peak energy storage using lithium anodes and iron sulfide cathodes.
