Embodiment 1

[0060] 1. Fabrication of Negative Plate

[0061] Weigh the composition as La 0.10 Ce 0.05 PR 0.35 Nd 0.50 Mg 0.10 Ni 3.70 Al 0.22 The metal raw materials are mixed, and the mixture is melted in a high-frequency melting furnace to obtain ingots. The ingot was heated in an argon atmosphere at a temperature of 1000°C for 10 hours to make the crystal structure in the ingot into Ce 2 Ni 7 type structure or similar structure. Afterwards, the ingot is mechanically pulverized and sieved in an inert gas environment to obtain rare earth-Mg-Ni hydrogen storage alloy particles having the above composition. In addition, the average particle size of the obtained rare earth-Mg-Ni-based hydrogen storage alloy was 50 μm. The average particle size is a particle size corresponding to 50% of the weight integral in the particle size distribution of the rare earth-Mg-Ni hydrogen storage alloy measured using a laser diffraction / scattering type particle size distribution analyzer.

Abstract

A positive electrode plate (3) of a nickel-metal hydride battery contains nickel hydroxide particles (18), a coating layer (19) covering at least a part of the surface of each nickel hydroxide particle (18) and mainly composed of a cobalt compound having an average valence of cobalt more than 2, and Nb-based particles (15) and Y-based particles (16) distributed among the nickel hydroxide particles (18). A negative electrode plate (4) contains a hydrogen storage alloy having a Co content of not more than 2.0% by mass, a separator (5) contains a fiber having a sulfone group, and an alkaline electrolyte solution contains sodium hydroxide as the main solute.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to nickel metal hydride storage battery. Background technique [0002] Ni-MH storage batteries are widely used due to their high capacity characteristics. However, nickel-metal hydride batteries tend to reduce the remaining capacity through self-discharge, and when they are used again after a period of time after charging, they need to be recharged. [0003] In order to improve this self-discharge problem, for example, in the nickel-metal hydride storage battery disclosed in JP-A-62-115657, a non-woven fabric made of sulfonated polyolefin resin is used as a separator. [0004] However, self-discharge cannot be sufficiently suppressed even in the nickel-metal hydride storage battery using the separator of the above-mentioned publication. [0005] Therefore, the inventors of the present invention have newly developed a nickel-metal hydride storage battery capable of suppressing self-discharge for a long period of time. Th...
