The effect of Electrocrystallization on the electrochemical property of nickel hydroxide contains manganese

Property of nickel hydroxide positive electrode containing a small amount of manganese was investigated by electrochemical and crystal structural analysis. The characteristic curves of charge-discharge process of nickel hydroxide electrode was improved by contain manganese. The other side, peak current density of oxidation reaction was decreased than the without manganese. It was considered that the carbonate ion and water molecule are inserted between interlayer of oxy nickel hydroxide.
