After discharging this battery to a final voltage of 1.70 V at a current rate of 10 hours, the positive and negative terminals were short-circuited and left for one week.

Table 2 As is clear from Table 2, Pb-Sb with Sb of 3% or more
By hot-dip plating on an alloy steel substrate, a negative electrode current collector in which copper is difficult to be eluted even if the lead coating is 10 μm thick by one electroplating can be obtained.

This is thought to be because the Pb-Sb alloy has better adhesion to the steel substrate than pure lead. There is no major harm to Pb-Sb alloy and lead-acid batteries, but they have the disadvantage of increasing the amount of self-discharge.However, since lead is further electroplated on the Pb-Sb alloy, Pb-Sb alloy current collectors and lead-acid batteries The amount of self-discharge will be smaller than that. Similarly to Example 2, in the Pb-Sn alloy, if Sn was 3% or more, performance equivalent to or higher than that of 3.5% Sb was obtained.

Similar effects were also observed in the Pb-Sn-Sb alloy layer.

- Generally, the ears are provided by casting, but if the ears are provided before hot-dip lead plating, the ears will melt during the hot-dip lead plating. Furthermore, if ears are provided by casting after air plating, the problem arises that the lead plating near the ears melts, exposing the copper, or that the plating thickness becomes thinner.

From the above points, it is preferable to form the electrode plate lugs between molten lead plating and electroplating.

This is fitted into a casting frame for forming ears, and a Pb-sb molten alloy having the same < sb% of 3.5% is poured into the mold, and after cooling, it is taken out. A 10 μm lead layer was formed by electroplating to obtain a negative electrode current collector. Using the obtained negative electrode current collector, a lead-acid battery similar to that in Example 1 was produced and tested, and as a result, the same effects as in Example 1 were observed.
