Battery Application & Technology All lead-acid batteries operate on the same fundamental reactions. As the battery discharges, the active materials in the electrodes (lead dioxide in the positive electrode and sponge lead in the negative electrode) react with sulfuric acid in the electrolyte to form lead sulfate and water.
When a lead-acid battery is discharged, the main component of the positive electrode is lead dioxide, and the main component of the negative electrode is lead. In the charged state, the main components of the positive and negative electrodes are lead sulfate [43, 44].
A lead acid battery consists of a negative electrode made of spongy or porous lead. The lead is porous to facilitate the formation and dissolution of lead. The positive electrode consists of lead oxide. Both electrodes are immersed in a electrolytic solution of sulfuric acid and water.
Damage to the electrodes. The lead at the negative electrode is soft and easily damaged, particularly in applications in which the battery may experience continuous or vigorous movement. Stratification of the electrolyte. Sulfuric acid is a heavy, viscous liquid.
Voltage of lead acid battery upon charging. The charging reaction converts the lead sulfate at the negative electrode to lead. At the positive terminal the reaction converts the lead to lead oxide. As a by-product of this reaction, hydrogen is evolved.
However, due to the corrosive nature the elecrolyte, all batteries to some extent introduce an additional maintenance component into a PV system. Lead acid batteries typically have coulombic efficiencies of 85% and energy efficiencies in the order of 70%.
