Abstract

Rechargeable versions of alkaline manganese dioxide‐zinc batteries need to be protected against overcharge especially in multiple‐cell series arrangements. It is necessary to shift the cathodic overcharge reaction to pure oxygen evolution instead of manganate(VI,VII) formation and to consume the oxygen produced either via a recombination reaction with hydrogen upon a suitable catalyst or by reaction with a chemically active zinc anode.
