King Louie is a supporting character from the 1967 Disney animated feature, The Jungle Book. Louie is an orangutan, inspired by Rudyard Kipling's classic novel. Louie did not appear in the book, however, because orangutans are not native to India.
Quick Answer. Overfilling the battery, poor design of the vent cap, age and distortion of the gaskets can all cause battery terminal corrosion. Nitrogen gas is emitted by the electrolyte in the battery. Material in the battery terminals and cable ends reacts with the nitrogen gas, and corrosion begins to form. Keep Learning.
Once the battery is fully charged, pumping more juice into it causes the water in the battery acid to break down into hydrogen and oxygen gas, a process known as electrolysis, which then bubble out of solution and float away into the atmosphere.ndeed, while a properly operating and installed car battery might get warmer from use, it shouldn't get hot enough to boil the acid. The boiling that commonly occurs in lead-acid batteries is due to electrolysis, not heat.
