1413266 Alkaline secondary cell VARTA BATTERIE AG 7 Feb 1974 [8 Feb 1973] 05700/74 Heading H1B To produce a voltage step in the discharge characteristic of an alkaline cell having a nickel oxide or hydroxide cathode, the step indicating termination of discharge and may be used as a switch step, the cathode active material includes an additional active material consisting of mercury oxide embedded in "Raney" (Registered Trade Mark) nickel. Preferably, the cathode active material contains from 10 to 20% by weight of HgO embedded in Raney nickel. In a method of making the cathode, pulverulent HgO material embedded in Raney nickel is added to uncharged nickel-hydroxide active material and the pulverulent mixture may be compressed on to a conductor. |
