た。2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, there has been an increasing demand for maintenance-free lead-acid batteries for automobiles due to the diversification of the environment in which they are used. In such a flow, a battery called a calcium type using a lead-calcium alloy in the positive and negative electrode grids, a lead-antimony alloy in the positive electrode grid, and a lead-tin-calcium alloy in the negative electrode grid, respectively. The hybrid type batteries used have come to be used.

た。At the time of welding for forming the strap, calcium contained in the lead alloy forming the ears of the electrode plate lattice and antimony in the added lead are melted with each other, so that the boundaries between the ears of the lattice and the shelves are very large. Intermetallic compounds are formed which are susceptible to corrosion. Then, when this strap portion is exposed from the electrolytic solution, corrosion has occurred at the boundary portion, progresses, and eventually the ear portion is cut off.

用されている。Regarding the above problems, Japanese Patent Publication No. 3-2589
Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 5 (1993) discloses that pure lead or a lead alloy containing no antimony is used for the shelf connected to the electrode plate grid and the pole. Recently, among such lead alloys, antimony is used. Lead-tin based alloys that do not contain are commonly used.

いという課題があった。However, when a lead-tin alloy is used for the additional lead forming the shelf, the crystal grain size of the lead alloy in the shelf becomes coarse. When the electrolytic solution or oxygen in the air penetrates into the grain boundary portion of the coarse crystal grain, corrosion of the lead alloy in the shelf progresses and lead sulfate is precipitated in the grain boundary portion. And this lead sulfate tries to spread the grain boundary part. As a result, stress acts near the crystal grain boundaries of the shelf portion, and there is a problem that so-called stress corrosion cracking easily occurs in the shelf portion.

By adding 00 ppm of selenium, selenium becomes the nucleus of the crystal of the lead alloy particles during welding, and promotes the refinement of the crystal particles of the shelf alloy. Therefore, it is possible to suppress the occurrence of corrosion due to the permeation of the electrolytic solution and oxygen in the air into the crystal grain boundaries.
