니켈/금속수소 축전지의 금속수소 전극에 관한 연구(I)
A Study on Metal Hydride Electrode of Ni/MH Battery(I)
초록
고성능 니켈/금속수소 축전지를 개발하기 위하여 전극용량도 비교적 높고, 합금가격이 저렴한 Mm계 전극에 대하여 P-C-T 특성, 충방전 특성, microencapsulation 방법 및 그 효과 등에 관한 연구를 수행하였다. P-C-T특성조사로부터 플라토압력, 수소저장량을 구하였는데, Mm계 합금인 경우는 각각 0.4기압, 310mAh/g으로 나타났다. Microencapsulation 처리를 함으로써 도전재를 혼합한 전극보다 전극용량 및 전극의 안정성을 향상시켰으며, 또한 전처리없이 microencapsulation처리가 가능하였다. Microencapsulation 처리한 Mm계 합금의 전극용량은 240∼250 mAh/(0.2 C)이었다.
A study on Mm type electrode which is relatively high in electrode capacity and low in material cost was performed to develope high performance nickel-metal hydride battery. The electrode characteristics were investigated by P-C-T, charge-discharge and microencapsulation treatment experiments. The plateau pressure and hydrogen absorption capacity obtained from the P-C-T experiment were 0.4 atm and 310 mAh/g, respectively. The electrode capacity and stability of microencapsulated electrode were improved than those of conductor mixed electrode and the microencapsulation was possible without pretreatment. The electrode capacity of microencapsulated Mm type alloy was 240 ∼250 mAh/g(0.2 C).
