After optimizing sealing technique and modifying capacity ratio of two adjacent electrodes in one sub-cell, some bipolar Ni/MH stacks with 6 sub-cells have been assembled and investigated. Electrochemical testing results show the bipolar battery has excellent high rate discharge capability and fast recharge ability, artd satisfactory charging efficiency in different states of charge. Moreover, the hattery also displays good stability under pulse cycles in simulating hybrid vehicle working oonditions.展开更多

This paper deals with the structure design and electrochemical studies of bipolar Ni/MH batteries for hybrid vehicles. An improvement is applied in bipolar battery design, and such bipolar Ni/MH batteries with 5 sub-cells have been assembled and investigated. Testing results show that bipolar batteries with improved structure have better compression tolerance and cycle performance than conventional ones. In addition, the improved bipolar batteries display excellent large current discharge ability and high power density. As simulating working conditions for hybrid vehicles, the batteries show good stability during pulse cycles, which verifies the possibility of being used as a power storage device on hybrid vehicles.展开更多
