OSTI ID:6653002
The lead-acid battery is the workhorse of the rechargeable battery systems. Although many new systems may challenge its position, its reliability, low cost, and good operational life make replacement by other battery systems many years in the future. The lead-acid battery is the single most-used battery system worldwide. A comprehensive summary of lead-acid battery science and technology, this book describes the technology as it exists today in the lead-acid battery industry. The fundamental principles and practical operations of the lead-acid battery are presented. Stress is placed on basic principles of battery operation. The functioning of the lead-acid battery is presented from the viewpoint of thermodynamic principles, electrochemical kinetics, and molecular structure. Sound engineering principles are applied to the practical processes of electrode manufacture. 381 references, 127 figures, 108 tables. (RWR)
