Battery and Analysis
What is overcharging and what effect does it have on battery performance?
Positive electrode: 4OH- - 4e → 2H2O + O2↑;①
Negative electrode: 2H2 + O2 → 2H2O②
Since the negative electrode capacity is higher than the positive electrode capacity during design, the oxygen generated by the positive electrode passes through the separator paper and combines with the hydrogen generated by the negative electrode. Therefore, under normal circumstances, the internal pressure of the battery will not increase significantly. However, if the charging current is too large, Or if the charging time is too long, the generated oxygen will not be consumed in time, which may cause the internal pressure to rise, battery deformation, leakage and other adverse phenomena. At the same time, its electrical properties will also be significantly reduced.
