The Experimental Analysis of Lead Acid Battery by Introducing Graphene & Lead Composite

Abstract

: In this paper, an experimental analysis of grid material for a lead acid battery is presented, where graphene is introduced in lead by using powder metallurgy technique. In proposed composite, the graphene is added to grid material of lead acid battery to increase battery life cycle, performance, charge acceptance rate. Four lead-graphene composite specimen of different composition are developed, for performing the series of tests to analyze charge acceptance rate. of lead acid battery. The graphene and lead are used with different percentage ratios, a good percentage of the graphene is found between the 0.5% to 2.0%. Experimental result shows the effectiveness of composites prepared. The results obtained also compare with the spongy lead which is being normally used in lead acid batteries.
