Investigations of Ni/Ni/Cl2 Electronics in Basic Chloroaluminate Melt.

摘要

Sodium/metal chloride cells represent a new class of advanced battery cell systems. Two versions of the positive electrodes, Fe/FeCl(sub 2) and Ni/NiCl(sub 2), are under investigation. The experiments described here were designed to study the electrochemical properties of the Ni/NiCl(sub 2) electrode in chloroaluminate melt. The objective was to gain a better understanding of the charge-discharge mechanism and the effect of various parameters on the performance of this electrode. 3 refs., 3 figs., 2 tabs.
