Nickel–metal hydride battery
A nickel–metal hydride battery (NiMH or Ni–MH) is a type of rechargeable battery.The chemical reaction at the positive electrode is similar to that of the nickel-cadmium cell (NiCd), with both using nickel oxide hydroxide (NiOOH). However, the negative electrodes use a hydrogen-absorbing alloy instead of cadmium.NiMH batteries can have two to three …
