Wettability of the Casing and Electrolyte Leakage in Airtight Nickel-Cadmium Storage Batteries,
Abstract
The results of studying the wettability of 08KP steel used for manufacture of storage battery casings, with an alkali solution at various potentials of the metal's surface are presented. It is shown that greatest wettability, and consequently, an increased tendency toward electrolyte leakage along the storage battery casing is observed when the casing is connected electrically to the negative block of electrodes; smallest wettability is observed when the casing is insulated from the working electrodes.
