Abstract
The electrochemical performance of nickel deposited on reticulated vitreous carbon (RVC) has been investigated in solutions of KOH. For comparison, th e study of sintered nickel and nickel deposited on gold wire behavior were also included. Our results indicate that the RVC covered with nickel is a g ood carrier for Ni(OH)(2)/NiOOH-an electrode material, used in rechargeable batteries, Ni/RVC saturated with Ni(OH)(2) shows behavior similar or even better than that of sintered Ni saturated with Ni(OB)(2).
