i. Stratification:
Stratification refers to the separation of the different components of the electrolyte solution in a lead acid battery. This can occur when the battery is not used regularly or is not charged and discharged properly. Stratification can cause the battery to lose its ability to hold a charge and may lead to reduced performance and shortened lifespan.
ii. Sulphation:
Sulphation refers to the build-up of lead sulphate crystals on the surface of the lead plates inside a lead acid battery. This can occur when the battery is not charged regularly or is not charged properly, or when it is left in a discharged state for an extended period of time. Sulphation can cause the battery to lose its ability to hold a charge and may lead to reduced performance and shortened lifespan.
