Additional Reversal Characteristics of Sealed Nickel Cadmium CellsThe reversal characteristics of nickel cadmium cells are discussed. The evolution of hydrogen from the positive electrode is described when the nickel cadmium cell is completely discharged. Results indicate that one ampere hour of overdischarge in reversal can generate enough hydrogen to increase the cell pressure of an average size cell, 20- to 50-ampere hour cell, by 120 psi.
