Abstract

Nickel powder (INCO 255) was used to prepare the electrodes. The anode was a porous nickel plate. Pure Ni and (Ni + 10% Cr) anodes were also fabricated. Several batches of electrodes were prepared by different techniques like loose power sintering (LPS), slurry casting (SC), tape casting (TC) etc. These electrodes were sintered in flowing hydrogen atmosphere at 1073 K (except in the case of Cr containing electrodes where it was 1173 K) for one hour. The cathode was mostly composed of porous nickel oxide plate. The nickel electrodes were usually got lithiated and oxidized inside the cell. The prelithiated nickel oxide powders were prepared by solid state reaction of nickel and Li2CO3 and characterized by XRD and cast in the form of tapes using a doctor blade assembly
