The following sections of this chapter will discuss three topics relating to positive electrodes in aqueous electrolyte battery systems, the manganese dioxide electrode, the “nickel” electrode, and the so-called memory effect that is found in batteries that have “nickel” positive electrodes.
The first of these deals with a very common material, MnO2, which is used in the familiar “alkaline” cells that are found in a very large number of small portable electronic devices. This electrode operates by a simple proton insertion reaction.
