Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim
41 words
A secondary battery with aqueous solutions of lead salts as electrolytes and inert electrode base plates for the active materials, wherein the electrolyte additionally contains from 0.1 to 100 mmoles/l of salts of manganese, cobalt, nickel, copper, thallium, bismuth and/or antimony.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
41 words
A secondary battery with aqueous solutions of lead salts as electrolytes and inert electrode base plates for the active materials, wherein the electrolyte additionally contains from 0.1 to 100 mmoles/l of salts of manganese, cobalt, nickel, copper, thallium, bismuth and/or antimony.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
32 words
A secondary battery as set forth in claim 1, wherein the anions of the salts of manganese, cobalt, nickel, copper, thallium, bismuth and/or antimony correspond to the anion of the lead salt.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
63 words
A secondary battery as set forth in claim 1, wherein the electrolyte additionally contains dissolved redox systems which have a standard potential of from -0.1 to +1.4 V relative to a standard hydrogen reference electrode, which redox systems do not form insoluble compounds with the electrolyte and are not oxidized or reduced irreversibly by the active materials within their range of operating potentials.
