Problems solved by technology

[0008] The problem with this process is that the amount of yttrium increases, and because the nickel hydroxide and yttrium hydroxide form a mixed state, the apparent specific gravity is low, making it impossible to obtain a high capacity density electrode

Embodiment 1

[0032] Prepare a sintered nickel substrate with a sintered porosity of 85% under a reducing atmosphere. At 30°C, immerse the substrate in an aqueous solution containing 0.3mol / l yttrium nitrate and a pH value of 2.5, and then dry it in an atmosphere of 80°C. The yttrium salt is retained in the micropores of the substrate. Thereafter, the substrate was immersed in a 25% aqueous sodium hydroxide solution to convert the yttrium salt into yttrium hydroxide. Then, the substrate was rinsed in water to remove the alkaline solution and sufficiently dried in an 80° C. atmosphere. The yttrium hydroxide layer was thus formed in the pores of the sintered nickel substrate.

[0033] Then, immerse the substrate in an aqueous solution containing 5.5 mol / l nickel nitrate and 0.06 mol / l cobalt nitrate at 80°C, with a pH value of 1.5, and fully dry it in an atmosphere of 80°C to make the mixture of nickel salt and cobalt salt Retained in the microwells of the substrate. The substrate was then...

Embodiment 2

[0037] The same sintered nickel substrate with a porosity of 85% as in Example 1 was immersed in an aqueous solution containing 0.3 mol / l yttrium nitrate at 30° C. with a pH value of 2.5, and then fully dried under an atmosphere of 80° C. Then put the substrate at 80°C in 25% sodium hydroxide aqueous solution to convert the yttrium salt into yttrium hydroxide, rinse it in water to remove the alkali solution, and dry it sufficiently under the atmosphere of 80°C to form the yttrium hydroxide layer before sintering. in the micropores of the nickel substrate.

[0038]Then, the substrate was immersed in an aqueous solution of pH 1.5 containing 5.5 mol / l nickel nitrate, 0.06 mol / l cobalt nitrate and 0.08 mol / l zinc nitrate at 80°C, and then fully dried in an atmosphere of 80°C. Then immerse the substrate in 25% sodium hydroxide aqueous solution at 80°C to convert nickel salt, cobalt salt and zinc salt into nickel hydroxide, cobalt hydroxide and zinc hydroxide respectively. The subs...

Abstract

The present invention provides a sintered nickel positive electrode plates for alkaline storage batteries with a high capacity density in which the working voltage during discharge is kept from dropping and the utilization of the positive electrode active material remains high even at high temperatures. The electrode comprises a porous sintered nickel substrate and metal hydroxides mainly composed of nickel hydroxide impregnated in the substrate, the metal hydroxides including: a first layer comprising a hydroxide of at least one element selected from the group consisting of yttrium, ytterbium and lutetium, and being in contact with the substrate; a second layer comprising a mixture of nickel hydroxide and cobalt hydroxide, and covering the first layer; and a third layer comprising cobalt hydroxide and covering the second layer.

Description

[0001] The present invention is a divisional case of application No. 00801209.1, filing date: June 12, 2000, and international application No. PCT / JP 00 / 03822 entitled "Nickel Positive Plate for Alkaline Storage Battery and Its Manufacturing Method" Apply. technical field [0002] The present invention relates to nickel positive plates for alkaline storage batteries, such as nickel-cadmium storage batteries and nickel-metal hydride storage batteries, and methods for their manufacture. Background technique [0003] As the use of alkaline storage batteries grows, the need to reduce the weight, volume and improve performance of these batteries is growing. Nickel positive plates for electric vehicle batteries are particularly needed to enable fast charge / discharge of these batteries, high active material utilization at high temperature and long cycle life. [0004] The positive plate of alkaline batteries used for fast charging is usually a sintered nickel electrode, which has ...
