✦ Synopsis

Studies are currently underway to further the development of lightweight nickel electrode technology. Work is focussed primarily on the space nickel-hydrogen system and the nickel-iron system, but it is also applicable to the nickel-cadmium and nickel-zinc systems. The goal is to reduce electrode weight while maintaining or improving performance, thereby increasing electrode energy density. Two basic electrode structures are being investigated. The first is the traditional nickel sponge produced from sintered nickel carbonyl powder. The second is a new material for this application which consists of a non-woven mat of nickel fiber. Electrodes are being manufactured, tested, and evaluated at the electrode and cell level.

A method for fabricating lightweight nickel electrodes has been developed by electrochemical impregnation of two different nickel fiber subslmtes. The electrochemical impregnation technique was applied galvanostatically at 35-50 mA/cm 2 in acidic solutions of nickel and cobalt nitrates (pH--3). The
