Abstract

The relationship between the discharge characteristics of reserve chemical power sources of the lead–perchloric acid–lead dioxide system and the physicochemical properties of electroplated cathode coatings with lead dioxide, including phase composition and microstructure, has been studied. The study reveals that the discharge characteristics of power sources can be enhanced by employing a two-layer lead dioxide coating consisting of a porous outer layer and a denser inner layer. The findings have been validated through the production and testing of industrial prototypes of pilot miniature reserve power sources, which exhibit improved performance even at low temperatures (activation time, less than 30 ms; discharge capacity, ~200 mA min/cm2; discharge voltage per cell, 1.8–1.2 V at –50°C).
