Reviving a brand-new Ni-Cd cell takes several steps and includes overcharging it, as only then, the active mass rearranges in a way that will get the most…

After six decades of development, lithium-sulfur batteries seem to be all set for a breakthrough. What took them so long, and are they really the next big…

GAZ's story goes back almost a century and a half and includes the buildup of the Zwickau site and the expansion to new locations. But none of these projects…

Although the basis of the nickel-cadmium cell is chemistry, its production is relatively simple engineering. Simple, but very precise, like folding electrode…

The electrodes of a nickel-cadmium cell include, among other things, a perforated strip of steel that forms a kind of pocket for the active…

The benefits of nickel-cadmium cells include a long lifespan, both in terms of chemistry and design. Thanks to many inconspicuous innovations, modern Ni…

We talked about the technology of Ni-Cd cells with Jiří Vitásek, the head of cell production at GAZ.

If you’ve ever travelled by plane, you know that all electronic devices equipped with a battery should be carried in your on-board luggage. That is…

Nickel-cadmium batteries naturally require both nickel and cadmium. Two metals that are quite similar, yet also very different, if only in where we find them…

Electrodes are probably the most fundamental components of a cell, but making them is far from simple, starting with the preparation of active materials.
