Lead-acid battery tetrabasic lead sulfate as a paste material for positive plates
Journal Article

· Bell Syst. Tech. J.; (United States)
A reproducible method of synthesizing tetrabasic lead sulfate (4PbO-PbSO/sub 4/) is presented which produces discrete elongated crystals approximately 22 mu long. Tetrabasic lead sulfate undergoes anodic conversion to PbO/sub 2/ while maintaining the characteristic morphology of the 4PbO-PbSO/sub 4/ crystals. This results in lead-acid battery positive plates having performance characteristics superior to those fabricated from conventional paste formulations. Data showing the performance of 4PbO-PbSO/sub 4/ positive plates as a function of plate porosity and present stress cycling data are given and compared with the behavior of typical conventional positive plates. 12 references.
