Abstract:
Nanostructured lead oxides containing carbon were prepared in order to fabricate a lead acid battery from decomposition of lead citrate precursor (Pb3(C6H5O7)2iƒ—3H2O) which was synthesized firstly by leaching spent lead acid battery paste in aqueous citrate salt system. The effects of different parameters on particle size and morphology of the final lead oxide products were optimized. The products were characterized by scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, surface area and pore size analysis and electrochemical test. The results show that the morphology of obtained carbon materials vary with the decomposition temperature. The combined lead oxide with carbon, when applied as a cathode in a lead-acid battery, is shown to be capable of conveying 30% higher energy-density and better performance during high-rate partial-state-of-charge (HRPSoC) operations compared with the traditional leady oxide made by ball-milled process. The new method has the potential for providing a possibility of manufacturing high-performance lead acid battery used for hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs).
