Abstract: A nickel hydrogen secondary battery accommodates an electrode group including a positive electrode and a negative electrode which are stacked one on top of another through a separator, together with an alkaline electrolyte. The battery contains Li, with a total amount of Li in the battery 2 of 15 to 50 mg/Ah, as determined as the mass in terms of LiOH per Ah of the positive electrode capacity. The negative electrode includes particles of rare earth-Mg—Ni-based hydrogen storage alloy which contains a rare earth element, Mg and Ni. The hydrogen storage alloy particles 44 includes, on the surface thereof, a rare earth hydroxide which is the hydroxide of a rare earth element and has a specific surface area of 0.1 to 0.5 m2/g.

Abstract: A battery comprises an electrode group including a separator, a positive electrode and a negative electrode. The negative electrode comprises a negative electrode core, negative electrode mixture layers retained to the negative electrode core, and a fluorine resin layer disposed on the surface of the negative electrode mixture layers. The negative electrode mixture layers include a first outermost peripheral region located at the outermost periphery of the electrode group and a second outermost peripheral region located opposite to the first outermost peripheral region. When the amount of the fluorine resin constituting a first fluorine resin layer in a portion of the first outermost peripheral region is represented by A, and the amount of the fluorine resin constituting a second fluorine resin layer in a portion of the second outermost peripheral region is represented by B, a relation A>B is satisfied.
