Abstract:
A nickel-metal hydride storage battery includes a negative electrode containing a hydrogen storage alloy and an electrolyte solution. The hydrogen storage alloy has a CaCu5-type crystal structure and contains at least a Ni element and a rare earth element. The rare earth element is partly substituted with an Y element, and the electrolyte solution contains NaOH in an amount of 2.0 M or more.
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.

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.
