The construction of a lead acid battery cell is as shown in Fig. 1. It consists of the following parts : Anode or positive terminal (or plate). Cathode or negative terminal (or plate). Electrolyte. Separators. Anode or positive terminal (or plate): The positive plates are also called as anode. The material used for it is lead peroxide (PbO 2).
The container is a fundamental part of the lead acid battery’s construction. There are, in general, two methods of producing the active materials of the cell and attaching them to lead plates. These are known after the names of their inventors. Plante plates or formed lead acid battery plates. Faure plates or pasted lead acid battery plates.
Plante plates or formed lead acid battery plates. Faure plates or pasted lead acid battery plates. In this process two sheets of lead are taken and immersed in dilute H 2 SO 4. When an current is passed into this lead acid cell from an external supply, then due to electrolysis, hydrogen and oxygen are evolved.
The negative lead acid battery plates are made by same process. It is seen that since active material on a Plante plate consists of a thin layer of PbO 2 formed on and from the surface of the lead plate, it must be desirable to have a large superficial area in order to get an appreciable volume of it.
This results in increase of superficial area by a large extend. The main feature of construction of lead acid battery is to accommodate a large volume of active materials i.e. PbO 2 in active plate. Positive plates are usually produced by Plante Process and the plates are known as Plante Plates.
There are mainly two parts in a lead acid battery. The container and plates. As this battery container mainly contains sulfuric acid hence the materials used for making a lead acid battery container must be resistant to sulfuric acid. The material container should also be free from those impurities which are deterious to the sulfuric acid.
