Abstract:

A lead acid or lead carbon battery includes a sealed casing including an acid and an electrode assembly. The electrode assembly includes an anode, a cathode, and a non-fibrous separator disposed between and in contact with at least a portion of both the anode and the cathode, wherein the anode, cathode, and non-fibrous separator are at least partially immersed in the acid. The anode includes an electrically conductive carbon active material, the cathode includes a lead oxide active material, and the non-fibrous separator has a thickness of about 0.005 to about 1.5 mm.
