A promising approach to enhance the energy density of lead acid batteries is by replacing conventional lead-based grids with lightweight alternatives. A corrosion layer forms between the active material of the battery and the lead alloy grid, ensuring proper bonding .
The lead acid battery market encompasses a range of applications, including automotive start (start-stop) batteries, traditional low-speed power batteries, and UPS backup batteries. Especially in recent years, the development of lead‑carbon battery technology has provided renewed impetus to the lead acid battery system .
This innovative design features a titanium base, an intermediate layer, and a surface metal layer. The grid boasts noteworthy qualities such as being lightweight and corrosion-resistant, which confer enhanced energy density and cycle life to the lead acid batteries.
Secondly, the corrosion and softening of the positive grid remain major issues. During the charging process of the lead acid battery, the lead dioxide positive electrode is polarized to a higher potential, causing the lead alloy positive grid, as the main body, to oxidize to lead oxide.
Conclusions The titanium substrate grid composed of Ti/SnO 2 -SbO x/Pb is used for the positive electrode current collector of the lead acid battery. It has a good bond with the positive active material due to a corrosion layer can form between the active material and the grid.
However, when compared to advanced secondary batteries such as lithium-ion batteries, lead acid batteries still exhibit significant shortcomings. Firstly, their actual energy density is low , with a mere 30–40 Wh/kg, representing only 24.4–32.5 % of the theoretical specific energy density of 123 Wh/kg .
