Abstract

Sintered plate Cd electrodes have been studied in alkaline solutions using potentiostatic and galvanostatic techniques. The behaviour is, in many ways, similar to that of a flat Cd electrode. A pseudo steady-state current is found due to the dissolution of Cd as Cd(OH)2−4. At more anodic potentials passivation occurs due to the solid state formation of Cd(OH)2. This model can account for the results obtained on galvanostatic discharge.
