Lead-acid battery (LAB) has been in widespread use for many years due to its mature technology, abound raw materials, low cost, high safety, and high efficiency of recycling. However, the irreversible sulfation in the negative electrode becomes one of the key issues for its further development and application. Lead-carbon battery (LCB) is evolved from LAB by
Carbon can also be used in the battery construction as a capacitor electrode allowing them to achieve a higher power density. Spread of mentioned carbon-based improvements in the lead-acid battery construction can lead to many further years of the economically feasible use of this type of batteries.
dCNT changes the nature of lead acid batteries. Increased charge acceptance and alteration of the electrode surface chemistry require additional attention to side-reaction management. A battery containing dCNT charges faster than a conventional battery, obviating the need for elongated recharge periods, especially on float.
Carbon has also the potential to be the next breakthrough in lead-acid battery technology in the near future. Its use in current collectors can lead to improvement in the weakest point of lead-acid batteries, namely their low specific energy.
Replacement of heavy lead grids with carbon collectors reduces the weight of batteries resulting in the increased specific energy of the battery. There is a major difference between the theoretical specific energy of the lead-acid battery, which equals 168 Wh kg −1, and typically acquired results in the 30–40 Wh kg −1 range.
It has a high electrical conductivity, large specific surface area, low cost, and environmental impact . The idea of the lead-acid battery with carbon capacitor electrode is applied in hybrid supercapacitors. They employ negative plates as capacitors, where lead in the active mass is replaced by carbon materials.
The utilization of the active mass is also relatively low, only 40–50% of lead and lead oxide transforms into sulfate during a discharge with 0.1C current . Overall, 65–75% of the total mass of lead in the battery does not take part in electrochemical reactions generating current .
