Nickel-hydrogen battery with oxygen with electrolyte management features
Patent
·
OSTI ID:5484140
This patent describes a metal oxide-hydrogen cell or battery having gas and electrolyte management features comprising one or more cell-modules, each cell-module having electrolyte. It comprises a negative electrode; a positive electrode which facilitates oxygen diffusion to the negative electrode; and separator means for separating the positive and negative electrodes and holding electrolyte of ionic conductivity disposed between the negative electrode and a first surface of the positive electrode; and means for enclosing the cell units, maintaining proper alignment of the electrodes and separator means, permitting passage of hydrogen gas therethrough to each negative electrode, and preventing swelling of separator edges, the enclosing means having a surface configuration adapted to allow electrolyte to drain from a surface of each negative electrode.
