Ni-MH Rechargeable Batteries 3 3 Composition and Chemistry A rechargeable battery is based on the principle that the charge /discharge pr ocess is reversible, that is, the energy delivered by the battery during dischar ge can be replaced or r estored by rechar ging. Nickel oxyhydroxide (NiOOH) is the active mate- rial in the positive electrode of t ...

The sealed nickel-metal hydride cell uses the “oxygen-recombination” mechanism to prevent a build- up of pressure that may r esult from the generation of oxygen towards the end of charge and overcharge . This mechanism requires the use of a negative electr ode (the metal hydride /metal electrode) which has a higher effective capacity than the p ...

T ypically , when the current is higher and the temperature is lower , the operating voltage will be lower . This is due to the higher “IR” drop that occurs with increasing current and the cell’ s increas- ing resistance at the lower temperatures. However , at moderate discharge rates ( ≈ C/5), the effect of low temperature on the capacity ...
