Conclusions:



CaSO4 can be one of candidate for continuing the research


  • the relative solubility in water can provide some SO4 2- ions in solution

    • increase the conductibility of the electrolyte
    • the crystallization of PbSO4 will be more easy due to the suprasaturation in SO4 cations
  • the similarity in crystallization system can provide seeds for crystallization for PbSO4

    • effective for the discharging process
    • avoid the passivation of the surface
  • the relative big difference in cell dimensions will make the PbSO4 crystal more instable and more easy to dissolve

    • effective in the charging process
    • avoid the premature sulfatation of the surface
