✦ Synopsis

Tetrabasic lead sulphate (4BS) is only formed in battery pastes that see temperatures in excess of 70 "C. Although it is difficult to oxidise anodically, when converted to PbOz it forms the alpha-polymorph which gives the positive plate a long cycle life. This statement is a summary of what appear to be currently held beliefs. In this discussion, the relevant literature is reviewed showing that this view is wrong.
