Ionic liquid as an electrolyte additive for high performance lead-acid ...
The performance of lead-acid battery is improved in this work by inhibiting the corrosion of negative battery electrode (lead) and hydrogen gas evolution using ionic liquid (1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium diethyl phosphate). The results display that the addition of ionic liquid to battery electrolyte (5.0 M H 2 SO 4 solution) suppresses the hydrogen gas evolution to …
