6SEALED SILVER-CADMIUM BATTERY INVESTIGATION.

Abstract

This report covers a research and development program leading to a long life, deep cyclic, sealed silver-cadmium battery. Organic chelating agents were investigated for their effect on silver-oxide solubility. Organic addition agents were studied for gas recombinattion. Several separator systems have been evaluated. Test cells were built to evaluate plate designs. A study of the solubility of silver-oxide in potassium hydroxide was made. Seventy-five sealed cells were assembled and tested. Cycle test results and failure analyses have been presented. A test report and prototype specification are included. (Author)
