The absorbed glass mat (AGM) in the sealed lead acid version uses a glass fiber mat as a separator that is soaked in sulfuric acid. The earlier gelled lead acid developed in the 1970s converts the liquid electrolyte into a semi-stiff paste by mixing the sulfuric acid with a silica-gelling agent. Gel and AGM batteries have slight differences in

The effect of phosphoric acid on the positive electrode reaction in a lead--acid battery is studied by cyclic voltammetry.

The form of PbO/sub 2/ produced in the presence of phosphate is not easily reduced to lead sulfate and, therefore, the
The basic anode and cathode materials in a lead acid battery are lead and lead dixodie (PbO2). The lead electrode is in the form of sponge lead.
