a longer life of the separator. The thicker multi-ribs geometry keeps over time the acid channels open longer, promoting the flow of the electrolyte . As a result, the thicker separator is reducing the risk of stratification and enhancing electrochemical processing
throughout the plates, resulting into longer continuous performance of the battery.
