Battery

 

In a lead acid battery, colloidal silica dispersions are used to gel the sulfuric acid to obtain a solid electrolyte.  Colloidal silica is the most efficient means available to achieve the gel matrix for high performance, gelled, valve regulated, lead acid batteries (VRLA).  It is the most cost-efficient, easiest-to-use, and environmentally sound option.

As a liquid, colloidal silica is easy to handle and can be added directly to the acid immediately prior to filling the battery.
