The results show that the strength of Pb-Sb-Ce alloy slightly decreases, while the tenacity behavior increases rapidly, which is helpful for the succeeding manufacture process for grid. The anodic corrosion layer of Pb-Sb-Ce alloy has better conductivity than that of traditional Pb-Sb alloy. It is shown that rare earth element can inhibit the development of Pb(Ⅱ), and then can compensate for the effect of premature capacity loss for the low Sb content.展开更多
