Storage Batteries X-Ray Studies

Abstract

This report present the results of the application of X-ray diffraction methods to the study of lead-acid storage cells. The fundamental chemistry of lead compounds with oxygen and sulfate was established by X-ray methods. Then these data were used in studying actual storage cells -- nature of freshly-pasted plates, formation processes, effects of charge and discharge, etc. It is believed that the work has established the importance of X-ray methods in research work necessary to the improvement in the life and capacity characteristics of storage batteries.
