Abstract:The present study is a follow-up of a previous work on hydrogen gas-rechargeable metal hydride ͑MH͒ electrode for Ni-MH battery. The hydrogen pressure drop in a NiOOH/H 2 battery during hydrogen absorption and electrochemical discharge was monitored. It was seen that hydrogen was simultaneously absorbed by the MH pellet electrode during discharge at higher pressures, and that the pellet released some hydrogen from the bulk when discharged at lower pressures.

“…To construct this type of novel bi-functional FCB system, the electrode materials are required to possess the following characteristics: (i) the negative electrode materials should be reduced by hydrogen gas (gaseous charging) and be oxidized during electrochemical reactions and (ii) the positive electrode materials should be oxidized by oxygen gas (gaseous charging) and be able to be reduced electrochemically [8]. Metal hydrides (MHs) are well suited for the negative electrode of the FCB system because they adsorb gaseous hydrogen [7,[10][11][12][13][14][15][16] and have been used as active materials in NiMH secondary batteries [15][16][17][18][19][20][21] as well as in air-metal batteries [11,[22][23]. It has been reported that MH can be rapidly charged to more than 70% of its theoretical capacity within 10 min by pressurized (0.3 and 0.5 MPa) gaseous hydrogen and that the charged MH can be electrochemically discharged by the reactions shown below [7]:…”
