If a lead-acid battery is charged with a slow charger for general battery, sulfuric acid accumulates as a by-product of the chemical reaction, which leads to battery performance deterioration. In order to charge such a battery turning it into the state of initial performance, a charger which employs high frequency wave is used to prevent performance deterioration.

3.2.2 Lead-Acid Battery Materials. The lead-acid battery is a kind of widely used commercial rechargeable battery which had been developed for a century. As a typical lead-acid battery electrode material, PbO 2 can produce pseudocapacitance in the H 2 SO 4 electrolyte by the redox reaction of the PbSO 4 /PbO 2 electrode.
Capacity reduction (degradation) of lead-acid battery over time is a regular occurrence. This is because a battery is typically designed to be cycled between 20 and 80 % SOC. An 80 % state of charge indicates that the remainder, 20 % are sulphates.
Slow charging a car battery typically takes between 4 to 24 hours, depending on several factors. The average time for a standard lead-acid battery in a vehicle is about 8 to 12 hours when using a charger that provides a low amperage. The charging time can vary based on the battery''s capacity and the charger''s output.

If at all possible, operate at moderate temperature and avoid deep discharges; charge as often as you can (See BU-403: Charging Lead Acid) The primary reason for the relatively short cycle life of a lead acid battery is depletion of the active material.
Experiments on a 12 V 50 Ah Valve Regulated Lead Acid (VRLA) battery indicated the possibility of 100 % charge in about 6 h, however, with high gas evolution. As a result, the feasibility of multi-step constant current charging with rest time was established as a method for fast charging in lead-acid batteries.
The primary reason for the relatively short cycle life of a lead acid battery is depletion of the active material. According to the 2010 BCI Failure Modes Study, plate/grid-related breakdown has increased from 30 percent 5 years ago to 39 percent today.
On the other hand, at very high acid concentrations, service life also decreases, in particular due to higher rates of self-discharge, due to gas evolution, and increased danger of sulfation of the active material. 1.
