Abstract:
The present invention relates to the field of lead batteries.More particularly, the present invention relates to the use, in the preparation of a lead battery electrode formulation, of a liquid composition, stable over time, comprising from 0.2% to 10% by weight, preferably from 0.2% to 5% by weight, of carbon-based nanofillers, at least one water-soluble polymer and at least one cationic component chosen from alkali metal or alkaline earth metal cations and ammonium ions dispersed in a liquid medium.Another subject-matter of the invention is a lead battery electrode obtained by using the said composition.
Abstract:
A process for manufacturing a pre-impregnated fibrous material, including a step of impregnation of said fibrous material with a matrix being of a thermoplastic polymer in the molten state. This process is characterized in that, prior to the impregnation step, an insertion step of incorporating, into said impregnating thermoplastic polymer, a lubricant including at least one oligomer chosen from oligomers of a cyclic ester, oligomers of a cyclic ether and oligomers of an organomineral compound. This oligomer makes it possible to lubricate the thermoplastic polymer, to promote wetting of the fibres of the fibrous material, and therefore to notably improve the impregnation of the fibrous material.
Abstract:
A method for the manufacture of a paste composition suitable for the production of an electrode for lead-acid battery, including mixing a carbon nanofiller/lead oxide composite of a first particulate size with sulphuric acid, water and further lead oxide of a second particulate size. Also, the paste thus obtained, the composite used in its manufacture, and the electrode and lead-acid battery obtained from this paste.
Abstract:
The invention relates to the field of lead batteries. More particularly, it relates to a solid composition comprising between 5 and 60 wt. % of carbon nanofillers, preferably carbon nanotubes, dispersed homogeneously in a hydrosoluble polymer in the presence of at least one cationic component selected from alkali or alkaline-earth metal cations and ammonium ions. The invention also relates to the use of said composition for producing lead battery electrode formulations.
