Recent development of lead-acid battery grid materials

Zheng Mao-sheng

Abstract

The recent trends on grid materials of the lead-acid battery were introduced, mainly on the lead-antimony alloy with low antimony and the lead-calcium alloy without antimony. The influence of the additives (tin, silver, rare earth elements and bismuth etc.) on the lead-antimony alloy with low antimony or the lead-calcium alloy expatiated systematically. In addition, other types of alloys were described.The development directions for grid materials in the future was pointed out.
