Abstract
The influence of the positive electrode properties on the activation time of the reserve chemical power sources of the system lead – perchloric acid – lead dioxide has been studied. Coatings of cathodes with lead dioxide obtained under various conditions are characterized by scanning electron spectroscopy, X-ray spectral microanalysis, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, standard contact porosimetry. The improvement of the performance characteristics of power sources including the ensuring of a short time of their activation at a low temperature has been shown to be possible with the use of a nanoporous coating of lead dioxide. To estimate the applicability of cathodes for the manufacture of power sources having minimal activation time a diagnostic principle has been used that it based on testing of cathodes by the method of chronopotentiometric measurements during galvanostatic discharge. Pilot industrial samples of small-sized reserve power sources of the mentioned electrochemical system with unprecedented short activation time (less than 30 ms at temperarure –50°С) were manufactured and tested.
