Lead-dioxide coated electrode grid made of a lead-calcium alloy

摘要

An electrode comprising a noble-metal free grid comprising lead, wherein the grid has an essentially PbO free PbO2 coating covering all, or essentially all of the surface of the grid. Also described is a method of forming an electrode, comprising applying an essentially PbO free PbO2 coating to a noble-metal free grid comprising lead, wherein the coating covers all, or essentially all of the surface of the grid.
