Problems solved by technology

[0003] The current disposable alkaline battery is limited by the commercial model, and the capacity of the battery is fixed. In order to increase the battery capacity, that is, the service life of the battery or the higher power consumption of the battery to meet the needs of some high-power electrical appliances, it is generally used to increase the battery capacity. The interface surface area of ​​the electrode active material and the way to increase the active material in the battery are generally achieved by increasing the density of the active material. After the density of the active material reaches a certain level, the increase in the density will lead to the discharge process. The chemical reaction rate is reduced, so that it cannot meet the needs of high power
[0004] Another problem with zinc-manganese disposable alkaline batteries that are mainly used now is that the battery has a sloped voltage characteristic in characteristics, that is, the average operating voltage of the battery gradually decreases when it is discharged, and when the battery is consumed at a higher power, the voltage drops. Therefore, the actual battery capacity obtained by the zinc-manganese battery under high power consumption is smaller than the battery capacity under low power consumption, so the current zinc-manganese battery is not suitable for high power consumption appliances such as cameras, etc.
In order to realize a disposable alkaline battery that can be used at high power, alkaline batteries with nickel oxyhydroxide as the cathode active material are mainly used, or nickel oxyhydroxide and manganese dioxide are used in a weight ratio of 1:1. Ratio as the cathode active material method to produce disposable alkaline batteries, but the cost of nickel oxyhydroxide is much higher than that of manganese dioxide

Embodiment 1

[0022] In a specific embodiment of the present invention, the zinc or zinc alloy in the anode material is in the form of particles, and the particles are generally in two ways, one is about 200 mesh particles, and the other is about 10-30 mesh particles. The ratio of the two types of particles is 3:10-4:10; the graphite accounts for 5%-12% of the weight of the anode material and adopts 10-30 nanometer particles; the zinc or zinc alloy includes 0.015%-0.025 % of aluminum; if adopting in the embodiment is metal zinc then mixed according to the content of the aforementioned aluminum in the form of aluminum powder or alumina powder; if adopting in the embodiment is zinc alloy, then in the production of zinc alloy according to Proportionally added. The purpose of adding aluminum to zinc or zinc alloy is to suppress the generation of hydrogen. The purpose of this ratio is to ensure that the content of aluminum in the electrolyte is 30-75ppm. If the content of aluminum in the electro...

Embodiment 2

[0029] In this embodiment, the anode active material is metal zinc or zinc alloy, the proportion of graphite in the anode is 5%, and the selected aluminum or aluminum oxide accounts for 0.025% of the zinc content.
