Structural changes during the anodic oxidation and cathodic reduction of nickelous hydroxide have been observed by direct X-ray examination of electrodes, combined with powder photography and optical microscopy. The tendency towards persistence of texture and lattice structure during anodic oxidati

β¦ Synopsis
The ageing of c+Ni(OH)I causes changes in the characteristics of the electrode due to the formation of different oxyhydroxides on charging. The discharge process has heen studied by potential step technique, and diffusion coefficients refined by extrapolation have shown little variation with ageing for measurements made at room temnerature. An unusual temperature function has been recorded and its mechanistic implications are discuked.

Polarization curves for the anodic oxidation and cathodic reduction of Ni(OH), electrodes at constant current have been obtained, and also Tafel curves for the anodic process. A comparison is made between the electrochemical behaviour of freshly prepared and of recrystallized Ni(OH)2 layers, and the
DC current and ac admittance at two frequencies (63.2 and 632 Hz) were measured for monocrystalline nickel electrodes [(11 l), (MO), (110) and (ZiO)] in 0.1 M KOH, under conditions of slow potential sweeps between -0.45 and +0.55 V. Three intertacial processes could be distinguished analyzing the de
