ABSTRACT:
Nickel-oxide electrode structures particularly suitable for use in mobile energy-storage applications comprising a highly porous carbon matrix having electrochemically active nickel hydroxide, i.e., NiO.OH, deposited within and in electrical contact with the carbon matrix sandwiched between two thin rigid supports, preferably magnesium. The surface of the support in contact with the carbon matrix can be coated with a metal such as gold to provide electrical conductivity. The electrodes are economically manufactured to provide a thick electrode having high porosity and large pore size while maintaining structural strength and stability, and which includes a large amount of electrochemically active nickel hydroxide therein.
