Customer ServiceA decisive step in the commerciali-zation of the lead acid battery was made by Camille Alphonse Faure who, in 1880, coated the lead sheets with a paste of lead oxides, sulfuric acid and water. On curing the plates at a warm tem-perature in a humid atmosphere, the paste changed to a mixture of basic lead sulfates which adhered to the lead electrode.
Throughout the early 20th century, advancements in lead-acid battery technology continued to improve their efficiency and reliability. The addition of antimony to the lead plates increased their strength and durability, and the use of glass mat separators reduced the risk of acid leakage.
French scientist Gaston Planté created the lead-acid battery in 1859. Planté’s battery consisted of two lead plates submerged in a solution of sulfuric acid. When a current was passed through the plates, a chemical reaction occurred that produced an electrical charge.
Major advances were also made in plate design and production techniques that gave rise to more efficient batteries with high specific power. In the late 1960s, the injection-moulded polypro-pylene case and cover were introduced and gave the lead acid battery a dura-ble, thin wall, lightweight container.
Classical lead acid batteries are flooded systems. That is, the electro-lyte medium is a free liquid to a level above the top of the plates and above the busbars. This has the disadvan-tage that the cells have to be vented to release the gases liberated during charging, namely, oxygen at the posi-tive electrode and hydrogen at the negative.
September 21, 2016: The history of the lead acid battery has been one of constant improve-ments — very rarely has it been in huge leaps forward but mostly it’s been slow and steady modifications. Or that was until the VRLA battery arrived and the challenges it threw up. By David Rand
