Battery and grid for positive electrode for lead storage batteries

Patent ·
OSTI ID:6146572
An improved grid for the production of positive electrodes for use in electric storage batteries is disclosed. The grid is formed of a base of lead or lead alloy which is essentially antimony free, and the base is coated with a lead alloy containing one or more metals, whereby the resulting grid achieves charging potentials essentially the same as achieved with conventional lead--antimony alloy grids while minimizing the possibilities of antimony poisoning. The grid may be made by electrically coating the surface alloy on to the support. 8 figures.
