Impact
through low acid concentration in upper part of electrode
|
strong
impact through inhomogenous current dustribution and local SOC
|
indirect
through increase gassing
indirect
through strong sulphation in the lower part if the electrode

|
Indirect
through positve electrode potential
|
high
discharge rate create many and small sulphate crystals
inhomogenous
current disctribution causes inh. SOC
