Development of Manufacturing Methods and Techniques for the Production of Improved Alkaline Batteries.

摘要

A development program directed at the problem of producing improved sealed alkaline batteries with matched cell capacities plus or minus 1% of nominal ampere-hour rating is described. The required properties of cell components are reviewed,and methods of fabrication along with cell designs are presented. The plus or minus 1% matching in cell capacity was attained with five-cell sealed 14ampere-hour nickel-cadmium batteries and five-cell sealed 15ampere-hour silver-cadmium batteries on short orbit cycling regimes.
