Battery terminal corrosion occurs as a result of oxidation. The corrosion occurs mostly in lead acid batteries. It appears as the white substance, greenish substance, blue substance or blue-green substance that accumulates at the battery terminals. Corrosion reduces the battery efficiency and lowers the batteries useful life.
The rate of corrosion is mainly influenced by the grid composition, active mass, electrolyte (additives), potential and temperature. 15 Many research works were reported on varying the composition of lead alloy grid material, to address the issues of positive grid corrosion rather than the use of pure lead. 16 To improve corrosion resistance of the positive grid in lead …
