The common oxidation state of silver is +1, ie,, as found in AgCl, which is used with Mg in sea- or freshwater-activated batteries (qv) AgNO, the initial material for photographic materials, medical compounds, catalysts, etc and silver oxide, Ag20, an electrode in batteries (see Silver compounds).

Silver [7440-22-4] Ag, as an active material in electrodes was first used by Volta, but the first intensive study using silver as a storage battery electrode was reported in 1889 (5) using silver oxide—iron and silver oxide—copper combinations. Work on silver oxide—cadmium followed. In the 1940s, the use of a semipermeable membrane combined with limited electrolyte was introduced by Andrir in the silver oxide—2inc storage battery. [Pg.544]

The button cells that provide the energy for watches, electronic calculators, hearing aids, and pacemakers are commonly alkaline systems of the silver oxide-zinc or mercuric oxide-zinc variety. These alkaline systems provide a vei y high energy density, approximately four times greater than that of the alkaline zinc-manganese dioxide battery. [Pg.121]

The capacity of single-use alkaline zinc-air cells is twice that of manganese dioxide-zinc cells. They cost less than silver oxide-Zn batteries or Li batteries. The best example of consumer usage is the hearing-aid button cell. In sealed condition it can be... [Pg.67]

Battery systems of complex design and structure using—at least for one electrode—expensive materials are (for economic reasons) mainly conceived as storage batteries. Primary (and "reserve") versions of the zinc/silver oxide battery [(-) Zn/KOH/AgO (+)] — as a first example—are only used in particular cases where the question of cost is not crucial, e.g., for marine [26-28] and space applications [29]. [Pg.202]

In acidic electrolytes only lead, because it forms passive layers on the active surfaces, has proven sufficiently chemically stable to produce durable storage batteries. In contrast, in alkaline medium there are several substances basically suitable as electrode materials nickel hydroxide, silver oxide, and manganese dioxide as positive active materials may be combined with zinc, cadmium, iron, or metal hydrides. In each case potassium hydroxide is the electrolyte, at a concentration — depending on battery systems and application — in the range of 1.15 - 1,45 gem"3. Several elec-... [Pg.281]

For alkaline storage batteries requirements are often demanded exceeding by far those for lead storage batteries. The reason is that the suitable materials for the positive electrode are very expensive (silver oxide, nickel hydroxide) and thus the use of these storage batteries is only justified where requirements as to weight, number of cycles, or temperature range prohibit other solutions. Besides a few standardized versions — mainly for nickel-cadmium batteries — this has led to the existence of a large diversity of constructions for special applications [4-6, 108, 109],... [Pg.282]

Zinc-silver oxide batteries as primary cells are known both as button cells, e.g., for hearing aids, watches, or cameras, and for military applications, usually as reserve batteries. Since the latter after activation have only a very short life (a few seconds to some minutes), a separation by cellulo-sic paper is generally sufficient. [Pg.286]

Advanced development of ion-selective films has been attempted by radiation grafting of methacrylic acid on polyethylene films, and combination of this with cellophane are also being tested. Polyamide fleece impregnated with regenerated cellulose, is another option for zinc-silver oxide batteries. [Pg.287]

Reactions in batteries are chemical reactions between an oxidizer and a reducer. In reactions of this type, the reducer being oxidized releases electrons while the oxidizer being reduced accepts electrons. An example of such a redox reaction is the reaction between silver oxide (the oxidizer) and metallic zinc (the reducer) ... [Pg.344]

Often, the oxides of certain metals are used as the oxidizer. In the names of systems and batteries, though, often only the metal is stated, so that the example reported above is called a silver-zinc, rather than silver oxide-zinc battery (or system). [Pg.350]

There are two major types of household batteries (a) Primary batteries are those that cannot be reused. They include alkaline/manganese, carbon-zinc, mercuric oxide, zinc-air, silver oxide, and other types of button batteries, (b) Secondary batteries are those that can be reused secondary batteries (rechargeable) include lead-acid, nickel-cadmium, and potentially nickel-hydrogen. [Pg.1228]

Mercuric oxide batteries are being gradually replaced by new technologies such as silver oxide and zinc-air button batteries that contain less mercury. [Pg.1228]

Mercury oxide and silver oxide button batteries are sometimes collected by jewelers, pharmacies, hospitals, and electronic or hearing aid stores for shipping them to companies that reclaim mercury or silver. Some batteries cannot be recycled. If recycling is not possible, batteries should be saved for disposing of at a hazardous waste collection. Battery recycling and button battery collection may be good options at present, but may change as the mercury concentration in the majority of button batteries continues to decrease. [Pg.1229]
