The beneficial effects of high tin on positive-grid corrosion in VRLA batteries improve corrosion resistance because of the large number of fine precipitate particles and better accommodation of the stresses of corrosion by the high mechanical properties of the alloys. Silver also increases the corrosion resistance of lead–calcium–tin alloys — particularly under conditions that simulate
