Structures of conventional examples and their problems The base of paste-type lead electrode plates can be formed by casting an antimony-lead alloy in the form of a lattice, or by using a tin-calcium-lead alloy to form a plate and then machining it. Methods such as making it into an expanded shape or making it into a punched plate are widely practiced. Here, there is a case where an antimony-lead alloy is used, and a case where a tin-lead alloy is used.
The difference in processing methods when using calcium-lead alloys is due to the fact that tin-calcium-lead alloys are considerably more difficult to cast than antimony-lead alloys. Next, the main difference in characteristics between using an antimony-lead alloy and using a tin-calcium-lead alloy is that
When using calcium-lead alloy,
The self-discharge of lead-acid batteries is reduced, and when used as lead-acid batteries for automobiles, for example, there is no need for water replenishment for a long period of time.

Note that when using this tin-calcium-lead alloy, the higher the proportion of tin, the more active it is generated from the lead paste, which is directly involved in the electromotive reaction of the storage battery, which is especially noticeable when applied to the positive electrode. This is thought to be due to better adhesion to the material, but the decrease in discharge capacity during repeated charge/discharge cycles may become smaller, or if the battery is not charged for a relatively long period of time after an abnormally deep discharge. It has characteristics such as better charging acceptance performance when left alone.

However, if the amount of tin that is effective here is too large, the solubility of tin will increase as the electrolyte becomes close to neutrality when the electrolyte reaches an extremely deep discharge state. There was a phenomenon in which tin dissolved in water precipitated in the form of dendrites and shot between the positive and negative electrodes.

Therefore, based on the demands for charging and discharging characteristics and the desire to prevent shoots during deep discharge, the proportion of tin was reduced.
It is often in the range of about 0.2 to 1% by weight.
Of course, it is obvious that, except for the shoot phenomenon during extremely deep discharge, it is better to increase the tin content to 1% by weight or more in order to improve the characteristics.

Purpose of the Invention The present invention uses only a relatively small amount of tin on average in a lead-acid battery electrode substrate using a tin-calcium-lead alloy, but achieves the same effect as when using a higher percentage. At the same time, the purpose is to suppress the shoot phenomenon between the positive electrode and the negative electrode.

Structure of the Invention The present invention involves applying a coating of a tin-calcium-lead-based lead alloy having a higher tin content than the slab to the surface of a slab made of a tin-calcium-lead-based lead alloy, and then forming it into a thin plate through a rolling process. The method is characterized in that the obtained thin plate is expanded or punched to form a porous electrode substrate.

In the present invention, coating only the surface of the slab with a lead alloy with a high tin content is because the slab is made into a thin plate and made into a porous body, and when this porous body is used as an electrode base, the paste is mainly applied to the electrode base. It is the concentration of tin or tin oxide, which is thought to have semiconducting properties, that exists near the surface of the electrode substrate that has a positive effect on the characteristics during charging and discharging at the contact surface with the active material formed by the electrode. This is because I think.

In addition, as a comparative example, the lead alloy slab used in the above example before depositing the lead alloy layer with a high tin content, that is, the lead alloy slab that was cast only with 0.2% tin, 0.08% calcium, and the balance pure lead. The slab is rolled as is into a thin plate with a thickness of approximately 1.1 mm,

Example: 3 minutes 10 seconds Comparative example: 2 minutes 02 seconds As described above, according to the present invention, the receptivity to charging when kept in an abnormally deep discharge state for a long period of time is excellent, and as a result, the discharge A battery with excellent characteristics can be obtained. This is because, in the structure of the present invention, the proportion of tin on the surface of the support of the positive electrode plate is high, so the physical adhesion between the support and the lead compound, which is the active material, is good, or It is thought that this is because tin oxide, which is expected to be generated during charging, lowers the electrical contact resistance between the lead compound, which is the active material, and the support surface.

In addition, the content of tin in the tin-calcium-based lead alloy to be coated on the tin-calcium-based lead alloy slab can be freely selected within a range greater than the tin content in the slab, but it is generally 1 to 1. It became clear that good effects were seen in the range of about 63%.

Furthermore, in the present invention, the surface of the electrode substrate is coated with a lead alloy containing a high proportion of tin, and this coating layer is formed on a lead alloy slab, and then this slab is rolled into a thin plate. Therefore, it is an extremely thin layer, and therefore the tin content does not increase much in the electrode base as a whole. Therefore, even during charging after an extremely deep discharge, there is a small amount of tin between the positive and negative electrodes due to the growth of tin dendrites. No shoot phenomenon is observed.

Effects of the Invention As described above, according to the present invention, it is possible to obtain an electrode substrate that has a reduced proportion of tin, has excellent charge/discharge characteristics, and provides a lead-acid battery without shoots.
