conventional AGM dual fiber-diameter series

Our start-stop series uses a dual fiber-diameter construction: a fine glass microfiber matrix provides electrolyte retention and surface area, while a coarser fiber fraction adds mechanical strength. The resulting separator withstands high-speed automated enveloping and helps maintain plate-group compression throughout the battery’s cycle life.

Compared with conventional AGM constructions, the series has over 200% higher tenacity, over 100% higher puncture resistance and 103% higher wet tensile strength, reducing the risk of dendrite short circuits and assembly damage. A non-wetting fraction of around 10% helps preserve oxygen-recombination pathways under saturation.

Duty cycle

Key requirements for start-stop duty

01

Frequent restarts

Repeated start-stop operation demands frequent high-current cranking. Stable float performance and reliable high-current discharge help maintain restart voltage over repeated cycles.

02

PSoC cycling

Partial state-of-charge operation promotes electrolyte stratification and dendrite growth. High porosity helps retain acid, while puncture resistance increased by over 100% helps reduce short-circuit risk.

03

Constant vibration

Engine-compartment vibration loads every interface in the cell. Wet tensile strength increased by 103% and tenacity by over 200% help maintain plate-group compression throughout service life.
