H. Dietz et al., ON THE HYDROGEN BALANCE IN SEALED LEAD-ACID-BATTERIES AND ITS EFFECT ON BATTERY PERFORMANCE, Journal of power sources, 42(1-2), 1993, pp. 89-101
An overview is provided on the basic principles of decreasing hydrogen
pressure in sealed lead/acid batteries. Approaches that are based on
present technology, as well as other possibilities for suppressing hyd
rogen evolution and oxidizing hydrogen, are studied and discussed. The
results emphasize the relevance of so-called hydrogen-evolution inhib
itors for industrial applications.
