Abstract:
A layered electrode group according to the present invention includes a positive electrode plate, a negative electrode plate, and a separator. The positive electrode plate is formed into a substantial U-shape by disposing two active material retaining portions retaining the positive active material opposite to each other. The negative electrode plate is formed into a substantial U-shape by disposing two active material retaining portions retaining the negative active material opposite to each other. The positive electrode plate and the negative electrode plate are layered such that at least one active material retaining portion at the positive electrode plate is sandwiched between two active material retaining portions at the negative electrode plate.
Abstract:
A positive electrode material for an alkaline storage battery includes nickel hydroxide. Zn and an A element are held in solid solution in a crystallite of the nickel hydroxide, the A element being at least one element selected from the group consisting of Al, Ga, Mn, and Mo. The content of the A element, [A]/([Ni]+[A]+[Zn]), is 5 to 16% (where [A] represents the molarity of the A element,[Ni] represents the molarity of nickel, and [Zn] represents the molarity of zinc in the crystallite). [Zn]/([Ni]+[A]+[Zn]) is 1 to 10%. The nickel hydroxide includes α-phase nickel hydroxide and β-phase nickel hydroxide.
Abstract:
A battery includes: a cylindrical battery case; and an electrode body disposed in the battery case, and including a positive plate, a negative plate, and a separator disposed between the positive plate and the negative plate. A spacer formed of a dense body and an electrolyte storage space storing an electrolyte are provided between the electrode body and the battery case on one end or both ends of the battery case in an axial direction of the electrode body.

The alkaline electrolyte contains a compound which is a chain saturated hydrocarbon at least partially having a hydrophilic functional group other than a hydroxyl group and having a molecular weight of 400 or more and less than 220000 in an amount of less than 15 g per 100 mL of the electrolyte.
Abstract:
This disclosure provides a hydrogen storing alloy and a production method thereof. The hydrogen storing alloy has a chemical composition of a general formula R(1-x)MgxNiy, wherein R is one or more elements selected from rare earth elements comprising Y, x satisfies 0.05≤x≤0.3, and y satisfies 2.8≤y≤3.8. The ratio of the maximal peak intensity present in a range of 2θ=31°-33° to the maximal peak intensity present in a range of 2θ=41°-44° is 0.1 or less (including 0), as measured by X-ray diffraction in which a Cu—Kα ray is set as an X-ray source.
