However, these suffered from alloy instability in alkaline electrolyte and consequently insufficient cycle life.
2.
The separator must conduct ions and remain stable in the highly alkaline electrolyte solution.
3.
NiMH cells have an alkaline electrolyte, usually potassium hydroxide.
4.
Mercury batteries use a reaction between mercuric oxide and zinc electrodes in an alkaline electrolyte.
5.
Other battery systems also use alkaline electrolytes, but they use different active materials for the electrodes.
6.
It is further known that unprotected aluminum oxide dielectrics can be slightly dissolved by alkaline electrolytes, weakening the oxide layer.
7.
Zinc-carbon batteries have given way to alkaline batteries; they use an alkaline electrolyte, which reduces corrosion and gives a longer life.
8.
In e-caps using an alkaline electrolyte this aluminum hydroxide will not be transformed into the desired stable form of aluminum oxide.
9.
This makes sense chemically as the acetic acid in the vinegar will tend to counter the alkaline electrolyte but I would not recommend it.
10.
Yablochkov did extensive research on transformation of fuel energy into electric energy, suggested a galvanic cell with alkaline electrolyte, and created a regenerative cell ( the so-called autoaccumulator ).
