Abstract:
An energy storage device including: a cylindrical case having at least one end closed; and an electrode assembly housed in the case. A reduced-diameter portion, at which an outer diameter of the case is reduced, is formed at the closed end of the case.
Abstract:
A nickel hydroxide for an alkaline secondary battery, wherein the nickel hydroxide contains α-nickel hydroxide particles and β-nickel hydroxide particles, and the ratio of the β-nickel hydroxide to the total amount of the nickel hydroxide is less than 75% by mass.
Abstract:
An energy storage device according to one aspect of the present invention includes: an electrode assembly including a positive electrode, a negative electrode, and a separator; and a nonaqueous electrolyte, in which the negative electrode includes: a negative substrate; a first layer disposed directly or indirectly on the separator side of the negative substrate and containing a metal of gold, platinum, or a combination thereof; and a second layer disposed on the separator side of the first layer, containing a polymer having lithium ion conductivity and a lithium salt, and capable of regulating passage of the nonaqueous electrolyte, and the negative electrode further includes a lithium metal layer disposed between the negative substrate and the first layer.
Abstract:
There is provided an energy storage device including: an electrode body; a lid portion; and a case main body having a body portion in a shape of a container which is open on one end side and for housing the electrode body inside itself and a sealing portion for surrounding and retaining the lid portion from an outer periphery on the opening side of the body portion, wherein an outside diameter of the sealing portion is smaller than an outside diameter of the body portion.
