Lead-antimony alloys for electrode supports for lead accumulators

Patent ·
OSTI ID:6451300
The grain size and resistance to corrosion of lead-antimony alloys containing less than 4% of antimony and 0.005 to 0.1% copper, are improved by incorporating therein from 0.001 to 0.1% of a mixture of rare earths, preferably misch metal. The alloys may also contain up to 0.5% arsenic or up to 0.8% of tin.
