Customer ServiceBy initially passing a dc current between the two lead strips, an oxide grew on the one on the positive side, forming a layer of lead dioxide. This caused the development of a voltage between them, and it was soon found that charge could be passed reversibly through this configuration, so that it could act to store electrical energy.

Introduction The lead–acid battery is an old system, and its aging processes have been thoroughly investigated.
Several kinds of additives have been tested for commercially available lead-acid batteries. The increase in the internal resistance of the lead-acid battery during charge-discharge cycles coincided with a decrease in the discharge capacity of the tested battery, so the internal resistance can be a good index of deterioration of the battery.
Lead-acid batteries are still promising as ener- gy sources to be provided economically from worldwide. From the issue of resources, it is the improvement of the lead-acid battery to support a wave of the motorization in the developing countries in the near future.
The recovery of lead acid batteries from sulfation has been demonstrated by using several additives proposed by the authors et al. From electrochemical investigation, it was found that one of the main effects of additives is increasing the hydrogen overvoltage on the negative electrodes of the batteries.
In addition to this, the increasing use of sealedlead-acid batteries in PV systems make also necessary to adjust the regulation voltages to these types of batteries.Typical voltage evolution of a lead-acid battery during a charge process performed at constant current isshown in Figure 1.
