Also special alloy grid is chosen to increase vent hydrogen over-potential gassing on
the negative plate, which prevents generation of hydrogen. Otherwise, the oxygen
generated from positive diffuses through separator to the negative and the oxygen gas
reacts quickly and is recombined into water. The reactions are as follows::
2Pb +O

So it is possible to build REXC battery in sealed structure.
