PROCESSING OF LEADACID BATTERIES IN MALEIC ELECTROLYTE
The paper considers the processing of lead-acid batteries in a maleic acid-based electrolyte, along with maleic acid, the electrolyte contains a lead salt of maleic acid and surfactant (surfactant) by electrochemical means. The influence of the structure of the surfactant in the electrolyte, the effect of the concentration of lead salt, as well as the effect of the concentration of MK (maleic acid) on the allowable current density, was studied. The permissible current density was determined in a Hull cell at a temperature of 28 °C. It is established that the use of surface active substances increases the permissible current density by 1.8 times. Addition of lead salt of maleic acid increases the allowable current density by 2.6 times. It was shown that an increase in the concentration of maleic acid by 2.2 times increases the permissible current density by a factor of 2.
