Nickel Metal Hydride Battery . A nickel metal hydride battery, NiMH, is a rechargeable battery with a positive electrode made of nickel hydroxide and a negative electrode made of a metal hydride (a hydrogen-absorbing alloy).The NiMH battery was commercially introduced in 1989 and was mainly used as a power source in portable personal computers.
Nickel metal hydride batteries consist of a positive electrode containing a mixture of carbon/graphite conductive diluent and nickel hydroxide as its principal active material. The negative electrode consists mainly of hydrogen-absorbing conducting metal alloys, a porous polymer separator filled with KOH electrolyte, a metal case and a resealing vent. The anode

11.1. Introduction Nickel-based batteries, including nickel-iron, nickel-cadmium, nickel-zinc, nickel hydrogen, and nickel metal hydride batteries, are similar in the way that nickel hydroxide electrodes are utilised as positive plates in the systems.
Provided by the Springer Nature SharedIt content-sharing initiative Nickel-rich layered oxides are one of the most promising positive electrode active materials for high-energy Li-ion batteries.
Similar to other Ni-based batteries, the positive electrode is the nickel electrode, which uses nickel hydroxide as the active material. The lightweight nature of the hydrogen gas electrode allows the Ni-H 2 cell to have exceptional high gravimetric energy density, but its volumetric energy density is lower than for other nickel-based batteries.
Similarly, Moazzen et al. prepared Ni (OH) 2 /Co (OH) 2 core-shell materials for the cathode electrode, in which the lattice-templating effect and the better electrical conductivity were found to be vital to the enhanced material utilization and superior electrochemical performance.
Therefore, pasted nickel electrodes are advantageous in attaining a greater capacity and energy density; but are inferior to sintered electrodes in terms of the electrical conductivity and high rate capability.
The advancement of the tubular-plate structure in nickel electrodes took place in 1908, where the electrode’s durability was improved efficaciously by restricting the mechanical forces induced from the expansion of the active material.
