Abstract

PURPOSE:To enhance the tightly contacting property between a grating and an active substance attached thereto and prolog the charge/discharge cycle life by forming a facial course over the surface of the body of a grating, wherein the facial course contains a large quantity of zinc. CONSTITUTION:A facial course containing a large quantity of zinc is formed on the surface of the body of a grating. As the surface of graing contains zinc very much, the characteristic of an oxidated corrosion layer generated on the facial course is improved to increase the tight contact property of this corrosion layer to the body of grating which suppress occurrence of exfoliating phenomenon at the interface with active substance. The overcharge potential will drop on the facial course containing much zinc, which will influence the physical property of active substance existing near the grating. This prolongs the charge/ discharge cycle life.

However, in the case of an expanded lattice made of this lead-calcium alloy, when charge/discharge cycles are repeated, the active material tends to soften and easily fall off the surface, resulting in a short charge/discharge cycle life. There was a problem with that.

Therefore, in order to prevent the active material on the lattice surface from falling off, a highly elastic mat-like separator made of L-shaped glass fibers is used as the separator interposed between the electrode plates to create a high group pressure configuration. In this case, it is possible to improve the performance of charge/discharge cycles by strengthening the adhesion between the active material and the lattice, but in this case, it would be extremely difficult to achieve a group pressure configuration of 11 during assembly. With this, 1-14 industrial products were produced [further improvement was required in step 2].

As mentioned above, when a lead-acid battery is repeatedly charged and discharged, the iE electrode active material tends to soften and fall off. Among these, when an antimony-free lead alloy, such as a lead-calcium-tin alloy, is used for the lattice, the adhesion between the lattice and the active material is low, causing peeling and cracking at the interface, which reduces battery capacity. However, according to the present invention having the above structure, since the surface layer of the lattice body contains a large amount of zinc, the characteristics of the oxidized corrosion layer formed on the surface layer are improved, and this corrosion layer is transferred to the lattice body body. It is thought that this increases the adhesion of the active material and suppresses the peeling phenomenon at the interface with the active material.Also, in the surface layer containing a large amount of zinc, the overcharge potential decreases, and the active material present near the lattice It is also inferred that it has a significant influence on physical properties.
