View moreAll lead acid batteries will accumulate sulfation in their lifetime as it is part of the natural chemical process of a battery. But, sulfation builds up and causes problems when: Two types of sulfation can occur in your lead battery: reversible and permanent. Their names imply precisely the effects on your battery.
To prevent sulfation from occurring, it is important to ensure that lead-acid batteries are fully charged and not left in a discharged state for extended periods of time. Additionally, regular maintenance and equalization charging can help prevent and reverse sulfation.
The recycling of lead in spent lead–acid batteries (LABs) is an effective measure to cope with the depletion of primary lead ore. In this study, multicomponent lead in the lead paste of spent LABs was successfully transformed into high-value nanolead sulfide (PbS) products via a combined vacuum calcination and two-step mechanochemical reaction.
In this case the natural self-discharge completely discharges the battery. This is rarely the case in commercial and passenger vehicle applications. The result of this hydration condition is that lead sulfate is dissolved as lead solubility increases considerably in the low specific gravity electrolyte.
Lead dioxide and lead are discharged in sulfuric acid to form lead sulfate and water. The reaction reverses during charge, lead sulfate being decomposed to produce lead dioxide and lead. Both reactions take place via dissolution–precipitation processes.
Sulfation can be removed from a lead-acid battery by applying an overcharge to a fully charged battery using a regulated current of around 200mA for a period of roughly 24 hours. This process can be repeated if necessary, but it is important to monitor the battery closely during the process to prevent overheating or damage.
