Abstract
The negative electrodes of an experimental sealed battery (AA size, 1A h capacity) were made from a multicomponent alloy (Mm(0.95)Ti(0.05)Ni( 3.85)Co(0.45)Mn(0.35)Al(0.35)) powder coated with 10 wt% nickel, polyt etrafluoroethylene (PTFE) and nickel powder. The Ohmic resistivity of the electrode increases with increasing PTFE content. The average disc harge voltage of the battery decreases with increasing discharge curre nt and increases marginally with increasing temperature. The overpoten tial of the negative electrode decreases with increasing temperature. Copyright (C) 1996 International Association for Hydrogen Energy
