Abstract :
In this paper, the authors investigate the effect that two different positive paste additives have on cell performance. They develop models for cells having plates with paste containing these additives as well as plates without any additives. In this manner, one can make theoretical comparisons between the performance of cells with and without additives. The results of their model simulations are compared with experimental data. They find that the positive paste additives can be used to improve performance.
