Abstract In this work, the application of ionic liquids (ILs)—mono-, bicycyclohexyl, monohexyl
and tetrahexyl ammonium hydrogen sulphate—as electrolyte additives on the
electrochemical performance of lead acid batteries is proposed. The electrochemical
behaviour of Pb–1.66% Sb–0.24% Sn alloy in sulphuric acid solution is investigated in the
presence of the mentioned ILs with different numbers of alkyl or cycloalkyl chains.
Particularly, the hydrogen and oxygen evolution potential and anodic layer characteristics ...
