Battery sulfation occurs when ever you use the battery especially when it is deep discharged. The is no way to stop the process but it can be helped and cured by frequent desulfation.

Here are some articles on this.

Battery Minders Learning Center

And this one. This is a really high end unit. These cost more then "some" of the batteries we buy for a TT.
Innovative Energy Systems - Battery Conditioners

This brand also uses pulse desulfation and is a very good unit. CTEK Battery Chargers | The World's Smarter Battery Charger

Hope this helps

John
