Abstact -A model of the positive plate of a nickel-cadmium accumulator is proposed, based on the known electrochemical behaviour of hydrated nickel oxides and on transport equations similar to those used previously for the cadmium electrode. The mathematical treatment of this model allows to predict
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
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
