Abstract
A method for producing a structurally modified nickel hydroxide active material for the positive electrode of an alkaline electrochemical cell. The method comprises the steps of combining a nickel ion solution, an ammonium hydroxide solution, and an alkali metal hydroxide solution to form a reaction mixture; and cycling the supersaturation of the reaction mixture.
