Hybrid Car Battery Specifications
A hybrid car battery is the heart of a hybrid vehicle. It helps the hybrid vehicle run on electricity from the grid. There are two main types of hybrid car batteries, namely, Li-Ion and NiMH. Both have different characteristics and uses. If you are interested in buying a hybrid battery, it’s important to know the differences between them.
Bipolar hybrid car battery
A bipolar hybrid car battery is a combination of an anode and a cathode. The anode is the part of the cell that generates electrical current, while the cathode is the part of the cell that receives the current. These two parts are stacked together, and are separated by separators. According to Toyota, the electrodes are “active material layers.” The separator is a nonwoven polyolefin fabric that holds potassium hydroxide electrolyte. This electrolyte is in a gel or aqueous solution.
NiMH
NiMH is a type of rechargeable battery …
