The Study of ZnO Crystal Growth in Supersaturated Alkaline Solution
Bannert, Tomáš ; Máca, Josef (referee) ; Chladil, Ladislav (advisor)
This thesis deals with the study of growth of zinc oxide crystals from supersaturated solutions using a scanning electron microscope and XRD methods. The work is divided into a theoretical and an experimental part. The theoretical part analyses issues related to the principle of operation of electrochemical cells with an emphasis on Ni-Zn batteries and phenomena limiting the life and efficiency of Ni-Zn batteries with a focus on phenomena that affect precipitation processes of zinc oxide crystals. It also analyses and compares the appropriateness of the methods that have been used to study the growth of the prepared zinc oxide crystals. The experimental part describes the preparation of a supersaturated solution, the process of each analysis and its evaluation. The results of each method are compared with the theoretical assumptions and among themselves. The experimental part also contains a chapter dealing with the design of in situ X-ray diffraction analysis methods of the obtained zinc oxide crystals.

A Study of Phenomena that Limit the Life-Span of Ni-Zn Secondary Cells
Chladil, Ladislav ; Oriňáková,, Renáta (referee) ; Vanýsek,, Petr (referee) ; Novák, Vítězslav (advisor)
This dissertation is focused on the study of selected additives and their effect on positive and negative electrodes of Ni-Zn secondary cells. The first group of additives consists of the inorganic compounds that reduce zinc oxide solubility and thus prevents shape changes of the zinc electrode. The second group contains organic additives that have the beneficial effect of dendrite growth prevention. All additives were examined in relationship to their compatibility with the positive electrode and to their effect on the zinc electrode dendrites inhibition, hydrogen evolution and corrosion inhibition. Moreover, the study of decomposition kinetics of supersaturated zincate solution with the first group of additives was performed. Finally, a short study of pulse regime charging mode with regard to dendrites inhibition was performed and evaluated.

Study Of Effect Of Organic Additives On The Morfology Of Zinc Deposit
Smejkal, Jan
Article studies effect of the selected organic additives on zinc deposit properties in relation to negative electrode for Ni-Zn battery. All additives were examined with emphasis on the study of dendritic and mossy structure growth suppression. Additives have been selected in order to their already known benefits for Ni-Zn cell and in order to their using in galvanic production. Additives were examined by XRD diffractometer Rigaku Miniflex 600 HR and electron microscope Tescan Vega 3 XMU.
