Abstract
A review is given of the requirements that must be met by porous nickel for alkaline-battery and fuel-cell electrodes. Methods by which the desired properties can be achieved are considered. Specific reference is made to four production techniques which may be employed singly or in combination. Practical and economic considerations involved in the use of the respective processes are discussed.
