Effect of additives in lead-acid batteries for hybrid electric vehicles
Tobolák, Jakub ; Křivík, Petr (referee) ; Bača, Petr (advisor)
This thesis is focused on lead-acid batteries used in hybrid electric vehicles. These batteries operate under partial charge, which brings problems with premature capacity loss. Tasks is to examine the influence of glass fibers as possible additives to the negative electrode of these cells in order to extend their life. The text describes the problem of hybrid electric vehicles, lead-acid batteries and other electrochemical sources.

Bilko, Radek ; Jareš, Petr (referee) ; Dostál, Zdeněk (referee) ; Bača, Petr (advisor)
This thesis is completion of whole stage of researches and it is a result of existing need of increase efficiency, utilization rate and service life of lead acid batteries VRLA planned for utilization in hybrid electric vehicles in mode of partial state-of-charge PSoC. During the application of mode PSoC at lead acid battery occurs irreversible sulfation of negative electrodes and thus to loss their charging capability. This phenomenon, according to the latest trend called PCL3, isn´t connected with subsequently referred effects PCL1, PCL2, show up on positive electrodes. Result of this thesis is finding a new types of additives, determine their optimum amount and size in such a way that innovated composition of negative active materials be able to resist sulfation of negative electrode during operation in mode PSoC. Part of the effort to clarify actions ongoing on negative active material and causes non-returnable sulfation electrodes is also monitoring of structural changes electrode active material by using environmental scanning electron microscope, which helped to clarify processes related with loss of capacity in mode PSoC. Special attention during reserches was focused on study of the properties contact layers between collector and electrodes active material and itself active materials lead-acid battery druring exploitation. There were gain new information about influence repeated cycling of (charging, discharging) the critical area of the electrodes. Measurements was carried out on specially prepared experimental electrodes DC Difference Method, this enabled obtain data in situ.

Conductive ceramic as additive in the lead-acid accumulators
Šrut, Martin ; Křivík, Petr (referee) ; Bača, Petr (advisor)
Lead-acid batteries are most used secondary electrochemical power sources. Their basic principle has remained the same for several years; only the operating parameters are in development. Lead-acid batteries are used in hybrid electric vehicles (HEV), which operates in the partial charge PSoC. Sulphation is one of the possible failures lead-acid batteries in the HEV, especially the negative electrode. By adding additives to the negative active mass can reduce the rate of sulphation and increase ability to accept an electrical charge by negative electrode.

The effect of pressure on the electrode system in lead acid batteries with experimental glass fibers aditives electrodes
Fryda, Daniel ; Vaculík, Sebastian (referee) ; Bača, Petr (advisor)
This Master’s thesis deals with the lead-acid batteries, which are alternativ power supply. The lead-acid batteries are the oldest type of battery cells. This lead-acid batteries have a great use in hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs), which operate in different modes of vehicle operation. These modes correspond to the reactions taking place during discharging and charging the battery. The lead-acid batteries in hybrid electric vehicles work in mode PSoC. The practical part of the Master`s thesis examines how the characteristics of lead-acid batteries are modified due to admixture of glass fibers into negative active material and application of pressure to the electrode system.

Investigation of carbon effect in negative active mass on lead-acid accumulator for HEV.
Tonar, Karel ; Křivík, Petr (referee) ; Bača, Petr (advisor)
The lead-acid bateries for hybrid-electric vehicle (HEV) working under high-rate partial-state-of-charge (HRPSoC) conditions. The negative plates of lead-acid batteries have low charge acceptance. The cycle life of the batteries is dependent on the rate accumulation of PbSO4 on the negative plates. Addition of some carbon or graphite forms to the negative paste mix improves the charge efficieny and slows down sulfation of the negative plates. The master’s thesis wants to explain the contribution of electrochemically active carbon (EAC) additives to the mechanis of the electrochemical reaction of charge of the negative plates.
