Nickel Cadmium
All Panasonic Nickel Cadmium batteries are classified by the federal government as a hazardous waste and must be recycled. These batteries are accepted for recycling by the Rechargeable Battery Recycling Corporation's (RBRC) Battery Recycling Program. Please call 1-800-8-BATTERY for information on recycling your used Nickel Cadmium battery or go to the RBRC website at www.rbrc.org for additional information.

What is Nickel-metal hydride?

Nickel-metal hydride batteries are a type of rechargeable battery with an electrochemistry similar to nickel cadmium batteries, but the eliminate the toxic cadmium metal.The older nickel cadmium battery uses nickel oxide hydroxide and metallic cadmium as electrodes, while the newer nickel-metal hydride battery keeps the nickel oxide hydroxide electrode it uses a complex alloy that readily absorbs hydrogen atoms forming a metal hydride, it is the absorbed hydrogen within this hydride that actually functions as the active electrode in the battery. In addition to eliminating the toxic cadmium (making recycling or disposal easier and cheaper) this change also provides other advantages: higher battery capacity, no memory effect, etc.Some of the different alloys used in the metal hydride electrode are:titanium nickellanthanum neodymium nickel cobalt siliconcerium lanthanum neodymium praseodymium nickel cobalt silicon
