Claims
- 1. A secondary lead-acid battery comprising an active material support member, said support member including a titanium suboxide electrode material having the formula TiO.sub.x, where x=1.55 to 1.95, an active material paste comprising lead oxide, lead sulfate and sulfuric acid in contact with said titanium suboxide electrode, and an electrolyte comprising sulfuric acid.
- 2. A battery as in claim 1 wherein said titanium suboxide electrode material is in the form of a solid ceramic.
- 3. A battery as in claim 1 wherein said titanium oxide is in the form of a powder.
- 4. A battery as in claim 1 wherein said electrode material is in the form of a conductive paint.
- 5. A battery as in claim 1 wherein said electrode material is in the form of a conductive paint.
- 6. A battery as in claim 2 wherein said support member comprises a plastic wall and wherein said titanium suboxide electrode material is in the form of pins passing through said wall such that said pins are exposed on each end.
- 7. A battery as in claim 2 wherein said support member consists of said titanium oxide electrode material.
- 8. A battery as in claim 7 wherein said titanium oxide is in the form of a plate.
- 9. A battery as in claim 1 further comprising a case for containing said support and electrolyte, wherein said case is sealed.
