Problems solved by technology

However, the increase of tin content increases the grain size of the alloy, and at the same time, some tin will precipitate at the grain boundary, resulting in intergranular corrosion of the alloy.
There is also the addition of cadmium to the alloy to increase the hydrogen evolution potential of the alloy, reduce the degree of corrosion, and eliminate the embrittlement of the grid, but cadmium itself is toxic, which has great restrictions on production itself

Abstract

The invention discloses rare earth grid alloy for a lead-acid storage battery. The rare earth grid alloy comprises the raw materials of, by weight, 0.10% to 0.14% of calcium, 0.8% to 1.5% of tin, 0.02% to 0.05% of aluminum, 0.2% to 0.4% of bismuth, 0.05% to 0.15% of RE and the balance of Pb. When rare earth elements are added into the lead-based alloy for the lead-acid storage battery, the rare earth alloy has the advantages of a Pb-Sb system and a Pb-Ca system. The problems existing in preparation of a grid in the prior art are effectively solved. The performance of the grid is obviously improved, meanwhile, the performance of the battery is improved, and the service life of the battery is prolonged. The problem of poor charging acceptance in winter is solved. The rare earth grid alloy has a good application prospect in the field of lead-acid storage batteries.
