OSTI ID:7311657
To determine the applicability of the hydrogen/silver oxide system as electrical energy storage device for satellites and to investigate the problems involved when associating a metal oxide electrode to a gaseous diffusion electrode, the silver oxide/hydrogen couple performance was investigated. The operational mode of each constituent (hydrogen electrode, silver electrode) of the battery was studied, their characteristics were evidenced and compared, and their compatibility was analyzed. Performances and limitations of the hydrogen/silver oxide battery were assessed and compared to those of the H/sup 2//NiOOH. The electrolyte, the separator, the container and its configuration, seals, and some specific problems such as thermal transfer are also reviewed. (GRA)
