In order to better understand the discharge capability attenuation of electrode, the ratios of zinc to calcium in the worst sample and the best sample of the orthogonal design test were analyzed. The samples were characterized by charge?discharge cycling, phase structure analysis, cyclic voltammetry and X-ray diffraction. Experimental evidences indicate that the optimum ratio of electrode additive is as follows: 0.02 g acetylene black, 0.5 g Bi2O3, 0.3 g PbO and 0.2 g Ca[Zn(OH)3]2·2H2O coated with La(OH)3 in 5 g sample.展开更多
