High Rate Stable Nickel-Cadmium Batteries.

Abstract

The report describes work for the design, construction, and testing of advanced state-of-the-art high rate stable vented nickel-cadmium batteries, with a special emphasis on the improvement of the separator wrap. Eagle-Picher Industries, Inc. designed and tested three to five cell units (BB-600 cells) of the BB-433 aircraft battery during phase I of this contract for the purpose of determining and selecting an optimum design. Phase II, the second half of the contract, included the design, fabrication and testing of 24 volt, 35 ampere-hour batteries of the BB-433 configuration, utilizing the optimum design features of Phase I. The batteries and the three to five cell units were tested in accordance with the updated Technical Guidelines for High Rate Stable Nickel-Cadmium Batteries.
