The following is the NiFe electrolyte mixing formula:
One (1) litre of liquid electrolyte weight approx. 1.20kg
The formula is: KOH=0.266kg + LiOH=0.02kg + Distilled Water=0.914kg =1.20kg.
WARNING: Electrolyte is Caustic & DANGEROUS when EXPOSED to SKIN, EYES and if INJESTED !
We advised you to wear rubber gloves and protective glasses at all times whilst mixing and handling this electrolyte!
The following is the instructions of the mixing process, mix it accordingly;
-
Water must be Distilled, as Contaminants in Tap, Ground & Rain Water may shorten the life of the Electrolyte by coating the internal cells over time.
-
Place the Distilled water in a mixing Vessel firstly that should be Stainless Steel, Plastic, Glass or Porcelain.
-
Firstly add the KOH power into the distilled Water and mix them well.
- Then Add the LiOH power and mix well again.
These Chemicals don't evaporate when the Liquid evaporates, they simply become more concentrated.
DANGER: ONLY add Chemicals into Water separately, NEVER add Water into Chemicals, due to the Thermal Chemical Reaction!
If you already have Solar you can make your own FREE Distilled Water, by purchase a $80 Water Distiller on ebay , these 750W units make 1.3 litre per hour. |
