premature capacity loss

synergistic effects

The present research aimed to ascertain if the merging of novel battery manufacturing processes could achieve an enhancement in the improvement of battery cycle-life. We found that the melding of novel battery manufacturing processes leads to synergistic effects with regard to the cycling performance of lead-acid batteries. The novel battery manufacturing processes employed in this study include: (i) grid cleaning; (ii) positive active material compression; and (iii) conductive additives in the positive paste. It was found that a combination of positive active material compression and grid cleaning approximately doubles the durability of batteries and is consistent with the additive effects of the individual treatments, while a combination of positive active material compression and conductive additives yields an approximate 30% boost in performance compared to the additive effects of the isolated treatments. Synergistic effects were not noted for other combinations of the aforementioned battery manufacturing practices.
