Problems solved by technology

However, most of these electrodes have the following problems: (1) Poor mechanical properties, easy to creep and flex, causing cathode and electrode short circuit, resulting in a decrease in cathode current efficiency and serious local corrosion of the electrode; (2) High oxygen evolution potential of the electrode, making the electrode (3) The electrode corrosion rate is high, and the corrosion products pollute the electrochemical process products
The above-mentioned Pb alloy grid for lead-acid storage battery mainly plays the role of active material carrier and current collector, and is compatible with metal electrodeposition, wastewater treatment, electroplating, organic electrosynthesis in terms of function, performance index, alloy composition and manufacturing process, etc. There is a significant difference in the Pb alloy electrodes used
In the above-mentioned electrodes for electrodeposition, the alloys used are all based on Pb-Ag alloys, and other alloying elements such as Ca, Al, Sn, Cr and Co are added to the basis of traditional Pb-Ag alloys, in an attempt to further improve the Pb-Ag alloy. The performance of the alloy electrode may partially reduce the Ag content, but there are some performance improvements w
