Recycled and vanadium-doped materials prepared from the recycling waste electrodes of spent car battery and V2O5 powder produce excellent electrochemical performances when used as a negative electrode in a car battery. The recycled and vanadium-doped samples having different V2O5 compositions (x = 0, 1, 5, 8, 10, 15, and 20%) were characterized by the analysis of X-ray diffraction (XRD), SEM, and spectroscopic investigations: IR, Raman, UV-Vis, PL, and EPR. The electrochemical characterizations of the recycled and vanadium-doped materials as anodic electrodes in a lead acid battery are performed by cyclic voltammetry measurements. The results of this study indicate that the V2O5 addition in the suitable proportion at recycled lead exerts a positive effect on the hydrogen gas evolutions, the passivation phenomena and electrochemical processes of self-discharge, and charge and discharge in lead acid battery. This, in turn, has the most beneficial impact on the life cycle of car batteries. The excellent electrochemical performance of recovered lead material may be attributed to the presence of a PbO2 crystalline phase which can accommodate high amounts of hydrogen and the presence of vanadium ions which increase the residual current and the effective conductive area in the potential range of 0 and 2 V. The vanadium-lead electrodes can significantly improve the stability and electrical performance of batteries and have great potential in energy storage and conversion applications.
