Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a nickel-metal hydride battery cathode material and a preparation method thereof, which is spherical β-Ni(OH) doped with a metal complex of glucaric acid 2 The prepared novel nickel-metal hydride battery cathode material belongs to the field of functional materials. Background technique [0002] Nickel-metal hydride alkaline batteries are also called nickel-metal hydride (Ni-MH) batteries. With the wide application of nickel-metal hydride batteries in mobile communications, personal electronic equipment, power tools and electric vehicles, the research on their positive electrode materials has also received great attention. more and more attention. [0003] The positive electrode of the nickel-hydrogen battery is made by uniformly mixing the positive electrode active material with nickel hydroxide as the main body, the conductive agent and the binder, and then forming the process. Nickel hydroxide has two structures of a phase ...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0006] 1. The utilization rate and specific capacity of the active material are low, and the utilization rate of ordinary doped nickel hydroxide is not more than 85%;

[0007] 2. The oxygen evolution potential is low. During the charging process, especially when overcharging, excessive oxygen is precipitated on the positive electrode, causing the internal pressure of the battery to increase, reducing the performance of the negative electrode, and causing the battery to heat up;

[0008] 3. Poor high-current charging and discharging performance: dry powder has weak conductivity, large electronic internal resistance, and low battery discharge depth;

[0009] 4. The crystallite shape is not good, the crystallite size is large, and the crystallinity is high, which is not conducive to the transfer of charges and the diffusion of protons during the charging and discharging process, resulting in the formation of a large amount of γ-NiOOH, causing electrode distortion or short circuit;

[0010] 5. The small number of microstructural defects in nickel hydroxide results in poor wetting ability of the electrolyte, resulting in OH in the electrolyte - Cannot react with the protons
