Investigations of Methods of Increasing Life and Capacity of Lead Acid Storage Batteries. 1. Preliminary Study of Methods for Evaluating the Corrosion Resistance of Positive Grid Material

Abstract

Theoretical considerations are given to the causes of corrosion of the positive grid, nature of the corrosion film, cause of gassing, overvoltage of hydrogen and oxygen, and contamination of the negative plate by transfer of antimony from the positive grid. Desirable grid and plate characteristics are discussed.
